- Pivot
- Roll-Up

In OLAP (Online Analytical Processing), the "Slice" operation allows users to view a specific subset of data for a given dimension (e.g., a specific city) and a particular level of hierarchy (e.g., a specific year). Slicing helps analyze data at a detailed level within the multidimensional data cube.
