             Summary: Feature request - cross cube reuse of Kylin fact/lookup 
snapshots ...
                 Key: KYLIN-1837
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KYLIN-1837
             Project: Kylin
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Job Engine
    Affects Versions: all
            Reporter: Richard Calaba
            Assignee: Dong Li


Hello Kylin gurus,

while debugging some issues with high cardinality dimensions - which obviously 
requires large data to be processed to emulate the problem thus the Cube Build 
process takes significant time ... I came to this idea:

- Cannot be the Snapshot logic - be resued cross cubes ??
- Let's say I have cube 1 and cube 2 which is clone of cube 1 maybe with 
removed some dimnesions or even having same dimensions and just having 
different measures definition ... 
- Cube 1 build fails somewhere in later steps (snaphost already built) in step 
1 I believe 
- Running build of 2nd cube - which let's say is using exactly same dimensions 
table and in fact also same fact table - this also requires long run because in 
the Step 1 the build process is calculating the snaphots ... which are already 
calculated (and still not discared) by the Build Job of Cube 1 ....

Is there any chance to define some snapshots reuse scenarios like that (same 
model/DB tables referred) ... so the modelling &build time can be shortened 
while playing with the cube design ??? (i.e. testing various optimizations like 
joint dimensions, etc ...- those should not be impacted by the source data 
stored in the ealready calculated snapshots, right ?
