Abstract
A preferred aggregate store for a multidimensional database receives and stores intermediate data generated as part of a larger query for avoiding repetitive or redundant data retrievals incurring costly data paths. Aggregates include intermediate tables and sets of data, often generated from a join of two or more distinct data tables, combined for generating a query result. In the event an aggregate is called for, certain storage locations may be preferable to others due to network distance, fees for storage and processing, as in the case of cloud storage, or write accessibility. Designation of a preferred aggregate store ensures that aggregates called for by the query processing are stored in a beneficial location for cost and efficiency.
