Hi Luke,

my name is Sebastien Jelsch, I’m currently working as a student at the German 
company inovex. As a part of my thesis at the University of Karlsruhe (Germany) 
I have get the task to extend a horizontal scalable OLAP engine with an 
analysis UI. For this I have integrated Kylin into Pentaho Business Analytics 
Platform.

With Saiku as an OLAP UI on top of Kylin OLAP, I am able to generate MDX 
statements via drag’n'drop. Mondrian converts this generated MDX statement in 
SQL and sends it to Kylin using the existing Kylin JDBC driver. The first 
results are very promising. Currently, I study and check the advantages and 
disadvantages, what problems arise and so on…

But I did not have to make any changes to Kylin. The integration of Kylin into 
Pentaho Business Analytics Platform was possible with some changes to 
Kettle-Core and Mondrian (add KylinDialect and Patch for generate explicit 
joins instead of implicit joins. For this I’ve also created a ticket: 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KYLIN-611 ). I’m going to create a pull 
request for my changes in Mondrian project soon.

As I did not have to make any changes in Kylin, I’m not sure what I can 
contribute to Kylin. But I would like to help, since this project is very 
interesting and has a lot of potential from my point of view. Here in Germany, 
I have submitted a presentation at the „data2day“ conference. I would like to 
give a talk about Kylin. I hope, my proposal will be accepted soon.

Currently I’m also working on an integration of Mondrian in Kylin, so Kylin can 
accept MDX statements via REST API. I’m still at the beginning of my work, but 
I was able to achieve small successes, see my picture attached (you can find my 
first patch in the kylin folder on my github project).

Please let me know if you have an idea how I can help you and the Kylin team.

Thank you for your interest.

With best regards,
Sébastien Jelsch
