Data cube pre computing is time and computer resources consuming task. In spite of this it needs to be done in order to construct an OLAP cube to take advantage of fast querying in data sets enormous in its sizes. Telecommunication industries collect huge amount of data about events in its networks. Every data portion holds a lot of information (i.e. service type, originator, receiver, time for start, duration, data volume, calling direction, cost, network interface address, etc.). In mobile telecommunication industries it is common to award each customer / subscriber by some prize (money, cell phone, discount to services and so on) in return of 24 month obligation to use one’s services. So, every 24 months subscriber gains ability to choose another telecommunication network. In order to maintain stable amount of subscribers’ service provider must offer something in return. In order to do that correctly, without financial loses, one must know exact usage statistics of each subscriber. This paper covers couple tips to arrange data in data warehouses (data marts) in order to achieve greater data cube pre processing speed. One of these methods covers partial data aggregation to highest degree, still sufficient to answer specific queries. Another method shows the ability to synthesize data cube dimensions in order to lower data volumes, that data cube pre calculation could take less time. |
