40 Manage Aggregate Storage Applications and Cubes

Review the topics in this chapter to better understand how to manage Essbase aggregate storage (ASO) applications and cubes. You can improve the performance of aggregations, reduce restructuring overhead, export data, monitor the ASO cache, and list statistics.

The information in this chapter applies only to aggregate storage cubes and is not relevant to block storage cubes.

Defining and executing aggregations requires Application Manager Permission or higher. Dimension builds that clear cube values require Database Manager Permission.
