Vincent,

You say you don't know much about ROLAP, so how did you decide to do relational OLAP rather than multidimensional or hybrid OLAP? I suggest that needs to be decided carefully. http://www.mysqlperformanceblog.com/2010/07/12/intro-to-olap/ and http://mysqluc.com/presentations/mysql06/hyde_final.ppt might be helpful starting points.

Are you looking at Mondrian?

You're right to regard OLAP design as a separate project stage, even if the end result turns out to be minimalist, eg ROLAP summary tables bolted onto the OLTP database.
