Systems and methods for specifying olap cube at query time

The system of claim I, wherein the one or more processors are further configured by machine-readable instructions to:

• receive a query comprising a cube identifier;
• retrieve objects from a data source associated with the cube identifier;
• generate an OLAP context container based on the cube identifier provided in the query by determining if a cached OLAP context container associated with the cube identifier is accessible;
• and
• respond to the query based on the generated OLAP context container and retrieved objects from the data source.

A method of generating an online analytical processing cube, executing on a computing device, the method comprising:

• receiving a cube definition file;
• accessing and parsing data of a data-source;
• generating a data-source property configuration for the data-source using the cube definition file;
• determining each of respective parsed data from the data-source is a key, attribute, or measure;
• and
• generating the OLAP cube by combining the cube definition file and the data-source property configuration for the determined parsed data from the data-source.

A non-transient computer-readable storage medium having instructions embodied thereon, the instructions being executable by one or more processors to perform a method for generating an online analytical processing cube, the method comprising:

• receiving a cube definition file;
• accessing and parsing data of a data-source;
• generating a data-source property configuration for the data-source using the cube definition file;
• determining each of respective parsed data from the data-source is a key, attribute, or measure;
• and
• generating the OLAP cube by combining the cube definition file and the data-source property configuration for the determined parsed data from the data-source.

A system configured for operating a query system, the system comprising:

• one or more processors configured by machine-readable instructions to:
• receive a query comprising a cube identifier;
• retrieve objects from a data-source associated with the cube identifier;
• generate an OLAP context container based on the query by determining if a cached OLAP context container associated with the cube identifier is accessible;
• and
• respond to the query based on the generated OLAP context container and retrieved objects from the data source.
