ABSTRACT:
A database warehouse includes a database having data arranged in data tables, e.g., fact tables and reference tables. A warehouse database hub interface is connected to the database. The warehouse database hub interface presents to a user a schema of the data in the database warehouse. The schema consists of virtual tables. Arrangement of the data in the virtual tables is different than arrangement of data in the fact tables and the reference tables. A user generates queries based on the schema provided by the warehouse database hub interface. In response to a such a query for particular information stored in the database warehouse, the warehouse database hub interface modifies the query to take into account pre-computed values and the arrangement of the data within the database warehouse. Then the warehouse database hub interface queries the database warehouse using the modified query to obtain the particular information from the database warehouse. Finally, the warehouse database hub interface forwards the particular information obtained from the database warehouse to the user.
