Disclosed is a technique for processing a base model. The base model is received. Then, the base model is used to create a ViewType comprising a ViewType object, one or more ViewList objects corresponding to classes in the base model, and one or more ViewElem objects corresponding to attributes in the base model.

System and article of manufacture for defining and generating a viewtype for a base model

Defining and generating a viewtype for a base model

A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for a data warehouse programs architecture. Data in a database stored on a data storage device is transformed. Initially, a program template is retrieved that contains parameters. A business view is invoked with the program template. Under control of the business view, a transformation program is invoked that transforms source data to generate target data using the parameters provided in the program template.

Data warehouse programs architecture

A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for a scalable data warehouse architecture. A query is executed in a computer to retrieve data from a database stored on a data storage device. Under control of a manager server, one of a plurality of agent servers is selected to execute the query based upon availability of each agent server and based upon connections between each agent server and a data source and a data target required for execution of the query.

Manager server selects an agent server to execute query based on

A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for maintaining object relationships. A query is executed in a computer to retrieve data from a database stored on a data storage device. Initially, one or more relationship objects are created, wherein each relationship object identifies a source object and a related target object. Next, when accessing a source object, related target objects are determined using the relationship object. When accessing a target object, related source objects are determined using the relationship object.
