A front-end computer sends a request to a back-end computer for dimension candidates for the data model, which is visualized by the front-end computer. The front-end computer is configured score and rank such dimension candidates in order to determine statistics from the data model. The back-end computer determines dimension candidates based on their cardinality and hierarchical information and sends the dimension candidates to the front-end computer. The front-end computer performs the scoring and ranking of dimension candidates and determines statistics for a set of the dimension candidates. The statistics may be presented to a user along with charts and graphs representing the data model.
