SYSTEM FOR ACCESSING AND TRANSFORMING DATA, INFORMATION AND DATA RELATIONAL RULES IN A MULTI-DIMENSIONAL DATABASE

A mobile integration engine application services component for accessing data and information stored in at least one multi-dimensional database and for presenting the accessed data and information to a browser-based application. The mobile integration engine application services component reads and translates the data and information, which includes data and information relating to critical business metrics as well as the data relational rules that govern the relationship of the data, and then creates markup language describing the accessed data and information for presentation to the browser-based application. An orthogonal drill mechanism creates a “drill-across” path from a first dimension to any other orthogonal dimension having a related dimension measure, allowing navigation between the orthogonal dimensions.
