  13. Data Warehousing Basics

  14. What is a Data Warehouse? • A Data Warehouse is the main repository of an organization's historical data, its corporate memory. It contains the raw material of a company's business intelligence system. • It’s designed to store historical data • It brings information together from multiple source systems into a single data store. • The data is stored using special techniques that are optimized for analysis and reporting.

  15. Extraction, Transformation & Loading (ETL) • The process of gathering data from the production systems, cleansing it, validating it and moving it into the Data Warehouse. This process can be considered part of the Data Warehouse Infrastructure.

  16. Key Terms • Cubes: An enhanced storage mechanism that allows an end user to look at data from multiple perspectives. Think about pivot tables. • Facts: Numeric data we are evaluating (cost, count, etc.) • Dimensions: Attributes like Geography, Marital Status, Date/Time, etc. that will be used to summarize data.
