An OLAP Engine is used for enabling fast ad hoc queries by end users. A
user can interactively explore data by drilling, slicing or pivoting.
Drilling refers to the process of exploring details of the data.
Slicing refers to the process of placing data in rows and columns.
Pivoting refers to switching categories of data between rows and columns.
In OLAP, we will be using what are called as Dimensional Databases.
