Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Multidimensional databases, also known as OLAP databases, are optimized for complex analytical queries and often used in data warehousing. They store data in a multidimensional format, allowing for fast querying and analysis of large data sets. Relational databases, while still widely used, are less optimized for fast analytical queries and are better suited for transactional processing. Object-oriented and inter-relational databases are less common and not typically used for analytical applications.
