Sample Star Schema Benchmark (SSB) Queries and Analytic Views

The SSB schema contains the tables: lineorder, customer, supplier, part, and dwdate. The following is a list of sample queries and analytic views you can use against the SSB schema. Note that you need to prefix the table names with the schema name SSB in your queries.

Note

Both SH and SSB are provided as schema-only users, so you cannot unlock or drop those users or set a password. And the storage of the sample data sets does not count towards your database storage.

Star Schema Benchmark Analytic Views

SSB Analytic Views

Analytic views make it easy to extend a star schema with a hierarchical business model, aggregation and measure calculation rules, presentation and application-specific metadata that can be used to enhance the content of a data set and to simplify the development of business intelligence applications. The SSB schema includes an analytic view and four hierarchies that use the tables of the star schema. Use the following queries to query the analytic Sample SSB view. Note that the analytic view is in the SSB schema.
