258258Any query that is fulfilled by Cube will use one of the following cache types:

260- - ** [ Pre-aggregations] ( #pre-aggregations ) in Cube Store.** This is the most
261- advantageous and performant option.
260+ - ** [ Pre-aggregations] ( #pre-aggregations ) in Cube Store.** This cache type
261+ indicates that the query utilized existing pre-aggregations in Cube Store,
262+ so it did not need to go to the database for processing.
262263- ** Pre-aggregations in Cube Store with a suboptimal query plan.** This cache
263- type indicates that queries still benefit from pre-aggregations in Cube Store
264- but it's possible to get a performance boost by [ using indexes] [ ref-indexes ] .
264+ type indicates that the query ultilized pre-aggregations in Cube Store,
265+ but that it's possible to get a performance boost by [ using indexes] [ ref-indexes ] .
265266- ** Pre-aggregations in the data source.** This cache type indicates that
266- queries don't benefit from pre-aggregations in Cube Store and it's possible
267- to get a massive performance boost by using Cube Store as [ pre-aggregation
267+ the query utilized pre-aggregations from in the upstream data source.
268+ These queries could gain a performance boost by using Cube Store as [ pre-aggregation
268269storage] [ ref-storage ] .
269- - ** [ In-memory cache.] ( #in-memory-cache ) ** This cache type indicates that
270- queries don't benefit from pre-aggregations at all. Queries directly hit the
271- upstream data source and in-memory cache is used to speed up the execution of
272- identical queries that arrive within a short period of time.
273- - ** No cache.** This cache type indicates queries that directly hit the
274- upstream data source and have the worst performance possible.
270+ - ** [ In-memory cache.] ( #in-memory-cache ) ** This cache type indicates that the
271+ results were retrieved from Cube's in-memory cache. All query results
272+ are stored in Cube's in-memory cache, and if the same query is
273+ run within a certain time frame, the results will be retrieved from in-memory
274+ cache instead of being processed on the database or in Cube Store. This is the
275+ fastest query retrieval method, but it requires that the exact same query was
276+ run very recently.
277+ - ** No cache.** This cache type indicates that the query was processed in the upstream
278+ data source and was not accelrated using pre-aggregations. These queries could have
279+ a significant performance boost if pre-aggregations and Cube Store were utilized.
