Cubes are managed from a cubes collection in a database. Cubes are created by adding them to the cubes collection in the database. Cubes are deleted by removing them from the cubes collection in the database.

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
