In a Nutshell:
OLAP, standing for On-Line Analytical Processing, is a very old term, referring originally to any analysis of data in a data warehouse or “on-line”, rather than by extracting figures and manually analysing them. In it's modern form (over the past 8-10 years), it refers to the building of specialist data constructions (“OLAP Cubes”) from the data in a data warehouse, which allow very fast and intuitive analysis of data. |
