BPC uses a relational database source, the database is designed for ROLAP use.
BPC with ROLAP (netweaver version ) is considered more scalable in handling large data
volumes, especially models with dimensions
BPC generally suffers from slower query performance as opposed to MOLAP engines, the
performance degrades when the database size grows.
BPC doesn;t creates aggregate tables, the query performance then suffers because the
larger detailed tables must be queried. This is partially remedied by adding additional
aggregate tables, however it is still not practical to create aggregate tables for all
combinations of dimensions/attributes.
Multiple smaller applications such as Sales Planning, Production Planning, and Cost Centre Planning
etc... With a summarized Finance Cube instead of one large overall application.
Limit the number of dimensions per application to no more than 15.
Restrict the number of properties you add to a dimension.
Restrict the length of each property.
Lower the number of unique members per dimension the better. Consider using an aggregated or
group level member that is still relevant to planning. Actual data is often at a more granular level than
planning, and could be summarized during the loading of the data into BPC.
Restrict the number of hierarchies as it impacts the size of the XML file as well as the time that it
takes to process a dimension.
