Cube model

Reference documentation

This is reference documentation covering the entire Atlan model. It is not the best place to start when trying to understand how to manage multidimensional cube assets in Atlan. For that, we would suggest starting with the manage cube assets pattern.

These model elements all deal with multidimensional cube constructs.

Properties

These attributes are specific to instances of MultiDimensionalDataset (and all of its subtypes).

cubeDimensionName

Simple name of the cube dimension in which this asset exists, or empty if it is itself a dimension.

cubeDimensionQualifiedName

Unique name of the cube dimension in which this asset exists, or empty if it is itself a dimension.

cubeHierarchyName

Simple name of the dimension hierarchy in which this asset exists, or empty if it is itself a hierarchy.

cubeHierarchyQualifiedName

Unique name of the dimension hierarchy in which this asset exists, or empty if it is itself a hierarchy.

cubeName

Simple name of the cube in which this asset exists, or empty if it is itself a cube.

cubeQualifiedName

Unique name of the cube in which this asset exists, or empty if it is itself a cube.

Relationships

The following illustrates how the various pieces of multi-dimensional datasets inter-relate with each other:
