Agenda • Data Mart • Benefits of DM • DW vs. DM • DM development • ECRM environment • Data Warehouse definition • Concepts • Logical transformation • Physical transformation • DW components • Disadvantages of DW
Definition By Bill Inmon in 1990 : "A warehouse is a subject-oriented, integrated, time-variant and non-volatile collection of data in support of management's decision making process".
Definition(cont.) • Data warehouse “A data warehouse is a structured extensible environment designed for the analysis of non-volatile data, logically and physically transformed from multiple source applications to align with business structure, to use in Decision-Support and Executive Information Systems”.
Concepts "Warehousing" data outside the operational systems • Performance • Subject oriented • Integrating data from more than one operational system • Data is mostly non-volatile • Data saved for longer periods than in transaction systems
Logical transformation of op. data • Structured extensible data model
Logical transformation of op. data • Structured extensible data model • Data warehouse model aligns with the business structure
Logical transformation of op. data • Structured extensible data model • Data warehouse model aligns with the business structure • Transformation of the operational state information • De-normalization of data • Static relationships in historical data
Physical transformation of op. data • Operational terms transformed into uniform business terms • Single physical definition of an attribute • Consistent use of entity attribute values • Issues associated with default and missing values
Business view summarization of data • Initial analysis in summary views • Significant performance gains • Many views into the same detail
Disadvantages of DW • Data warehouse takes time and more expensive to build • Data warehouse is more complicated on many aspects including the development ,end-user training and difficulty in distributed database environment • Data warehouse has a considerable time-lag from current operation
Disadvantages of DW When the size of a data warehouse goes very large • The competition to get inside a warehouse grows fierce. • Data becomes harder to customize • The cost of doing processing in the data warehouse increases as the volume of dateincreases • The software that is available for the access and analysis if large amount of data isnot nearly as elegant as the software that can process smaller amounts of data. Solution : Adding data marts to the decision support system
Data Mart Definition Small DW that contains user-specific data that has already been customized and summarized for a specific department within an organization, such as marketing, sales, finance, or accounting. Next step in data storage
Benefits of DM • it costs less • Supports individual knowledge worker communities • less likely to lead to interdepartmental conflicts • A department can customize its own data mart according to its ownrequirement • There is more options when selecting a suitable software for data mart as well as for data analytical
DM development • The top down model • The bottom up model • The parallel model • The parallel model with feedback.
