How to optimize Universe performance

Hi all,

I want to Improve Universe performance for reporting Purpose. So any one can sugest me please.!!!

For Universe performance or fine tuning depends on

  • the size of underlying database
  • Indexes used in DB tables.

Basic steps of Universe design to improve performance:

  • Using aggregate_awareness to base queries on aggregate tables .
  • Optimizing array fetch parameter in universe parameter.
  • Modifying number of rows returned by a table
  • Using short cut joins.
  • Build objects/dimensions (for eg. Acct Nos, Cust No) from lookup tables rather than fact.
  • Use sum() for all measure objects wherever necessary to limit rows returned into the micro cube in reports.

I have added few points, maybe others can add more to it.

Doesn’t modifying the number of rows gives wrong results…I mean What is the purpose of decreasing the number of rows returned…Isn’t it a partial answer to a query
