Talk:Dimensional database

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The example of not being able to generate top 10 exam results is not quite right. If you are trying to point out that you cannot limit the result set to a specific number of records, this is wrong. You can limit the max number of records returned in the query result set in most databases with SQL interface i have come across (PostgreSQL for one). (I'm not too sure but i think lmiting the result set is required to meet SQL 2003 standard?!?).

A better example could be where you have the ability to slice and dice the data in a Multi-Dimensional database.
