Materialised views selection using size and query frequency

International Journal of Value Chain Management (IJVCM), Vol. 5, No. 2, 2011

Abstract: The queries for decision making are usually analytical and complex in nature and their response times are high when processed against a large data warehouse. This problem of high response times can be addressed by materialising views over a data warehouse. Since all possible views cannot be materialised due to space constraint, there is a need to select an appropriate subset of views that can improve the query response time. One way to address this problem is by selecting views in a greedy manner. Most of the greedy-based view selection algorithms consider size of the views to select most beneficial views for materialisation. This paper presents a greedy based approach that considers query frequency, along with the size, of the views to select most profitable views for materialisation. These profitable views are likely to answer most future queries and thereby may lead to reduction in the query response time.
