-----------Diff b/w OLAP and RDBMS?..

Answer / Anand Prakash Trivedi

The main difference between OLAP (Online Analytical Processing) and RDBMS (Relational Database Management System) is in how they store and query data. OLAP stores data in a multidimensional format, which allows for faster querying and analysis of large amounts of data. RDBMS stores data in a tabular format, which makes it more suitable for transaction processing and ad-hoc queries.
