Abstract
Constraint association, constraint persistence, and constraint execution is provided herein. Constraints can be associated with one or more cells in a datacube. The constraints can be stored or persisted with the datacube or in association with the datacube. The constraints can include rules, limitations, or functions determining the set or scope of possible values for the associated cells. The constraints can be applied to the cells when first associated, or when a constraint trigger is received or performed, such as a change to the value of an associated cell. Constraint execution can cascade to additional cells not directly associated with the constraint, and can invoke additional constraints in the cascade. Constraints can include configured constraints, associated to cells by a user via a constraints menu. Constraints can include data model constraints based on a data model for the datacube. Constraints can include default constraints applied during constraint execution.
