An OLAP cube is a multidimensional database that is optimized for data warehouse and online analytical processing (OLAP) applications. An OLAP cube is a method of storing data in a multidimensional form, generally for reporting purposes. In OLAP cubes, data (measures) are categorized by dimensions.
Starting with InterSystems IRIS 2025.1, the way dependent cubes are handled in cube builds and cube synchronizes was changed.
This change may require modifying custom build/synchronize methods. If you are using the Cube Manager, these changes are already considered and handled, which means no action is needed.
Prior to this change, cubes were required to be built and synchronized in the proper order and account for any cube relationships/dependencies. With this change, dependent cubes are automatically updated as needed when using the %BuildCube or %SynchronizeCube APIs.
