System and method for generating in-memory tabular model databases

Abstract:

Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for generating a tabular model. An event model is generated that comprises a plurality of events and one or more dependencies between each event. For instance, the events and dependencies may be identified through interaction with a graphical user interface (GUI), such as an event studio. A plurality of dimensions is mapped to each event and event records are obtained related to the event model. A presentation database is generated for the event model. Using the presentation database, a tabular model may be generated. In some implementations, the tabular model may be stored and/or presented as a tabular cube in a platform for analyzing transactional data.
