  <abstract>Cloud Computing provides a flexible environment for customers to host and process their information through
an outsourced infrastructure. This information was habitually located on local servers. Many applications dealing with
massive data is routed to the cloud. Data Warehouse (DW) also benefits from this new paradigm to provide analytical data
online and in real time. DW in the Cloud benefited of its advantages such flexibility, availability, adaptability, scalability,
virtualization, etc. Improving the DW performance in the cloud requires the optimization of data processing time. The
classical optimization techniques (indexing, materialized views and partitioning) are still essential for DW in the cloud.
However, the DW is partitioned before being distributed across multiple servers (nodes) in the Cloud. When query containing
multiple joins or ask voluminous data stored on multiple nodes, inter-node communication increases and consequently the
DW performance degrades. In this paper, we propose an approach for improving the performance of DW in the cloud. Our
approach is based on selection of temporary materialized views through a web service. For this purpose we use an algorithm
allows to identify the queries list sent to the DW, and adds a materialized view for each new costly frequent query. This
technique is based on managing temporary materialized views in order to optimize the frequent queries load by respecting
the total cost. An experimental study on a cloud DW is carried out and a comparative tests show the satisfaction of our
approach.</abstract>
