Very nice. I did a day project a while ago to do something basic. http://www.binarymax.com/cube.html http://www.binarymax.com/cube.html (NOTE: doesnt work in firefox, but is fine in all other browsers). I'm pretty sure my algorithms would quickly run into stack and memory issues quite quickly, but I havent looked at it in 6 months. How long have you been studying OLAP structures and algorithms? Its the kind of stuff that is very interesting, but I sometimes have trouble wrapping my head around. I'm curious if you have any favorite reading materials on the subject? EDIT: also FYI, your link on the blog to the github js repo goes 404 since it has an extra '.' on the end

For a good description of OLAP data structures and algorithms, I'm a fan of _Data Mining_ by Jiawei Han and Micheline Kamber

Thank you. How long? I was working for around 5 years in (later with) a data warehouse in a mobile telco company, now I am doing "data brewing" as a freelancer. My favourite book is Star Schema The Complete Reference by Christopher Adamson. Very very brief introduction to OLAP and Cubes you can see in my slide deck: http://www.slideshare.net/Stiivi/cubes-7781602 http://www.slideshare.net/Stiivi/cubes-7781602 Thanks, fixed the link.
