XIE FAN commented on KYLIN-2363: -------------------------------- I agree with this idea. And I think we can extend this idea a little: allow users to select exactly which cuboids they need in a visual way. Users can choose what cuboids they need in the front-end and only these cuboids will be materialized. For example, users can choose to calculate all the 1-D and 2-D cuboids and part of the 3-D, 4-D cuboids and exclude the other. > support limit of dimensions in a cuboid > --------------------------------------- > > Key: KYLIN-2363 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KYLIN-2363 > Project: Kylin > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: fengYu > > the scene like this: > I have 20+ dimensions, However the query will only use at most 5 dimensions > in all dimensions, so cuboid that contains 5+ dimensions(except base cuboid) > is useless. > I think we can add a configuration in cube, which limit the max dimensions > that cuboid includes. > What's more, we can config which level(number of dimension) need to > calculate. in above scene, we only calculate leve 1,2,3,4,5. and skip level 5+ -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
