MONZA transforms relational OLAP databases into multidimensional cube structures optimized for user workflows. OLAP cubes deliver superior performance and usability, with built-in hierarchies for efficient data navigation.

01 · Dual-technology core

Relational power. Multidimensional usability.

Built with a dual-technology core and integrated with Kainam's AI at its heart to enable real-time decision-making.

01

Columnar relational engine

A highly-tuned, columnar relational database optimized for large-scale data operations. SIMD acceleration, advanced compression, parallel execution.

02

Virtual multidimensional OLAP cube

A virtualized cube layer that translates high-level business queries (MDX) into efficient SQL for execution by the database engine — no physical pre-aggregation required.

02 · Key features

What MONZA delivers. Out of the box.

Sub-Second Query Response

Lightning-fast results on complex analytical queries over billions of rows — perfect for interactive dashboards, reports, and ad-hoc exploration.

MDX-to-SQL Translation Layer

Analysts write intuitive multidimensional queries; MONZA automatically translates and optimizes them into fast, efficient SQL.

Columnar Storage Engine

Columnar storage, SIMD acceleration, advanced compression and parallel execution — maximum performance on large datasets.

Virtual Cube Design

The OLAP cube layer is virtualized — no physical pre-aggregation. Flexibility in modeling and fast iterations without expensive rebuilds.

Real-Time Drilldowns

Slice, dice, pivot, and drill through vast datasets with zero-latency interaction. Instant access to the answers behind all your data.

No ETL Bottlenecks

MONZA works directly on your native schema — no need to reshape or move data into cube-specific formats. Saves time, reduces complexity.

03 · Why both?

Most platforms force a trade-off. MONZA brings both.

Relational databases are the industry standard for storing large-scale, normalized datasets with strong consistency, indexing, and transactional reliability.

Multidimensional cubes are intuitive for users exploring data across dimensions like time, geography, product, and customer — especially when doing comparative or trend analysis.

By combining the two, you get enterprise-grade performance and scalability from the columnar backend, along with intuitive OLAP-style interactivity that empowers business users — eliminating the trade-off between expressiveness and performance.

05 · Comparative fact sheet

Why MONZA is more scalable and cost-effective than legacy cubes.

Common limitations of legacy cube platforms
  • Dependence on vendor-specific infrastructure and toolchains.
  • Static cube designs requiring pre-aggregation and manual rebuilds.
  • Slow refresh cycles, high latency on large datasets.
  • Complex ETL pipelines and rigid schema transformations.
  • High costs and long-term vendor lock-in.
  • Limited readiness for AI or cloud-native integration.
