Every cube has at least one partition, its default partition. Additional partitions can be defined so that portions of a cube’s data can be stored in different locations. A partition contains these collections: Dimensions and their subordinate Levels collection, Measures, Datasources, CustomProperties, and an MDStores collection containing aggregations.
The Dimensions collection in a partition contains the cube dimensions stored in the partition.
The Measures collection in a partition contains the measures for the partition. A measure's definition in the partition’s Measures collection will default to its definition in the partition’s parent cube.
The Datasources collection in a partition specifies the data source for the partition. Each partition can specify its own data source or inherit the parent cube’s default data source.
The CustomProperties collection contains Property objects that you can use to define additional properties for your own purposes.
The MDStores collection in a partition contains the aggregations associated with the partition.
