Abstract
Inputs are received. The inputs are a star schema data model comprising a non-partitioned fact table (F) comprising fields (f, f, . . . f); a set of queries (Q=q, q, . . . q); and a set of weights for each query in Q. Each weight defines the priority of a respective query in a workload. The inputs are pre-processed to produce a most-granular-partitioning. The most-granular-partitioning is processed to produce an initial multi-level partitioned primary index, the processing including determining the scan cost of one of the queries in Q. The initial multi-level partitioned primary index is processed to produce a final multi-level partitioned primary index, the processing including determining the query cost of one of the queries in Q. F is partitioned using the final multi-level partitioned primary index. A query from Q is run against F to produce a result. The result is stored.
