The invention discloses a data query method and system. The data query method includes the steps of firstly, extracting various dimensionalities in a business system, building a plurality of logical tables of business data for describing the business system, building incidence relations between the logical tables and the dimensionalities, then building mapping relations between a physical table and the logical tables according to the physical table of the business system, writing logical query statements according to the logical tables and a logical data query grammar defined according to a rule, finally, according to the mapping relations between the physical table and the logical tables, converting the logical query statements into structuring query statements, and executing the structuring query statements in a database to complete querying of the business data. According to the data query method and system, the complexity of data table understanding and writing can be reduced, and the understandability of a data structure of the business system is improved.
