Introduction

The topics in this group explain the igOlapFlatDataSource™ component and its use.

The igOlapFlatDataSource component enables multi-dimensional (OLAP-like) analysis to be performed on flat data collections. Given a data collection or an igDataSource™ instance and based on the user configuration, igOlapFlatDataSource extracts the necessary metadata in order to create dimensions of hierarchies and measures.
