Topic: Data warehouse


  
 Data warehouse - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A data warehouse is created by analyzing ways to categorize data using dimensions and ways to summarize data using measures.
A 'real' data warehouse is generally preferred to a virtual DW because stored data has been validated and is set up to provide reliable results to common types of queries used in a business.
A Data warehouse is a repository of integrated information, available for queries and analysis.

 Data Warehouse Description
Warehouses optimize database query and reporting tools because of their ability to analyze data, often from disparate databases and in interesting ways.
As with any information system, trustworthiness of data is determined by the trustworthiness of the hardware, software, and the procedures that created them.
Source data analysis and the efficient and accurate movement of source data into the warehouse environment are critical to the success of a data warehouse project.

 Data Warehousing Technology
But for the most part, this data is locked up in a myriad of computer systems and is exceedingly difficult to get at.
Ultimately, the optimal data warehousing strategy is to select a user population based on value to the enterprise and do an analysis of their issues, questions and data access needs.
Clearly, the goal of data warehousing is to free the information that is locked up in the operational databases and to mix it with information from other, often external, sources of data.

 Electronic School: Smart Data
There are two parts to this problem: First, ensuring that the data is being collected and entered accurately into the district's operational computer systems; second, extracting the data from those systems on a regular basis and moving it to the data warehouse for analysis.
Because a data warehouse needs to be aligned with your district's strategic goals and objectives in order to be effective, any data warehouse implementation should begin with a dialogue between the vendor and district staff that focuses on the school system's goals and business needs.
Although data warehouses have been used in the corporate world for over a decade, the technology is still a relative newcomer to K-12 education.

Insurance companies use data warehousing for claims analysis to see which procedures are claimed together and to identify patterns of risky customers.

 Paper: Alan Perkins - "Strategic Data Warehouse Development"
Operational systems in most enterprises have been developed independent of a common data architecture, which means that most operational data are stored and managed redundantly and may even reside in many different physical sources: old mainframe files, non-relational databases, indexed flat files, even proprietary tape and card-based systems.
Every data entity in current detail is a snapshot, at a moment in time, representing the instance when the data are accurate.
The principal reason for developing an information warehouse is to integrate operational data from various sources into a single and consistent architecture that supports analysis and decision-making within the enterprise.

 Data Warehouse Design, Development, and Implementation
Promising a full-blown data warehouse when you only have resources for a database, will always doom a project.
Hardware incompatibilities, data format incompatibilities, software bugs, late deliveries, etc. are more the norm than the exception.
This approach applies a more disciplined approach to the data warehouse development.

 DBMS - December 1996 - Data Warehouse Architect
In particular, if the dimensions of two data marts are conformed, it is easy to implement drill across by sending separate queries to the two data marts, and then sort-merging the two answer sets on a set of common row headers.
Dimensions should be chosen with the long-range data warehouse in mind.
Thus, the challenge of the data mart designer is to meet the users far more than halfway.

 Define data warehouse - a definition from Whatis.com
Data from various online transaction processing (OLTP) applications and other sources is selectively extracted and organized on the data warehouse database for use by analytical applications and user queries.
Data warehousing emphasizes the capture of data from diverse sources for useful analysis and access, but does not generally start from the point-of-view of the end user or knowledge worker who may need access to specialized, sometimes local databases.
The latter idea is known as the data mart.
