Data Warehousing • Make the right decisions for your organization • Rapid access to all kinds of information • Research and analyze the past data • Identify and predict future trends • The construction of data warehouse • Involve data cleaning and data integration • Provide on-line analytical processing (OLAP) tools for the interactive analysis of data • W.H. Inmon • A data warehouse is a subject oriented, integrated, time-dependent and non-volatile collection of data in support of management’s decision making process
Characteristics of Data Warehouse • Subject-oriented • Data warehouse is designed for decision support and around major subject, such as customer and sales • Not all information in the operational database is useful • Integrated • Integrate multiple heterogeneous sources and make it consistent • The data from different sources may use different names for the same entities
Characteristics of Data Warehouse • Time dependent • Record the information and the time when it was entered • Data mining can be done from the data in some period of time • Non-volatile • Data in a data warehouse is never updated
Data Warehousing • Data warehousing • The process of constructing and using data warehouse • Two types of databases • Operational database • Large database in operation • Built for high speed and large number of users • Data warehouse • Designed for decision support • Contain vast amounts of historical data • Data mart • A department subset of the data warehouse that focuses on selected subjects, and its scope is department-wide
OLTP & OLAP System • OLTP (On-Line Transaction Processing) System • The major task of operational database is to perform on-line transaction and query processing • OLAP (On-Line Analytical Processing) System • Data warehouse system serves users on data analysis and decision making
Multidimensional Data Model • Example: AllElectronics creates a sales data warehouse in order to keep records of the store’s sales • Fact Table • sales amount in dollars and number of units sold (measure) • Dimension Tables • time, item, branch, and location • Multidimensional data model views data in the form of a data cube
Two Dimensions • 2-D view of sales data for item sold per quarter in the city of Vancouver. The measure is dollars_sold (in thousands) Dimensions Measures
Three Dimensions • 3-D view of sales data according to the dimensions time, item and location. The measure is dollars_sold (in thousands) Dimensions Measures
Three Dimensions • 3-D data cube representation according to the dimensions time, item and location. The measure is dollars_sold (in thousands)
Four Dimensions • 4-D data cube of sales data according to the dimensions supplier, time, item and location. The measure is dollars_sold (in thousands)
Snowflake Schema • Some dimension tables are normalized to reduce redundancies and save storage space • Reduce the effectiveness of browsing since more join will be needed to execute a query • This saving of space is negligible in comparison to the magnitude of the fact table • Snowflake schema is not as popular as the start schema in data warehouse design
Design of Data Warehouse • How can I design a data warehouse ? • Top-down approach • Bottom-up approach • Combination of both • In general, the warehouse design process consists of the following steps • Choose a business process to model • Choose the gain of the business process • Choose the dimensions • Choose the measures
