Well, based on my quick Google search, it's pretty obvious which method is used, as long as you have read up on the products - which information is available on the Cognos site.

MOLAP implies a self-contained cube format, usually in a proprietary format.
ROLAP means a relational database that looks like a cube.
HOLAP means a cube format from which you can also query relational data.

Your other option, of course, is to ask your Cognos account manager to provide you with this information!
