Abstract
In a database system having processing units, a request is received to calculate aggregates of multiple combinations of a given set of columns. The processing units are divided into multiple groups, where each of the multiple groups includes a corresponding subset of the processing units. Within each of the groups, data of each processing unit in the group is replicated to other one or more processing units in the group. Within each of the groups, aggregates of at least some of the multiple combinations of the given set of columns are calculated by the processing units in the group using the replicated data.
