A data warehouse comprises three fundamental layers.
The top layer, which serves as the interface, provides user access to the analyzed data. This stratum contains query and mining tools that facilitate the retrieval and utilization of data.
The middle stratum is responsible for data preparation. There are two possible approaches: ROLAP (relational online analytical processing) is one such application that maps multidimensional data. The system in question is a relational database management system, which stores both data and dimension tables within relational tables. MOLAP (Multi-dimensional Online Analytical Processing) is the second method, which applies direct operations to multidimensional data.
The bottom layer, also referred to as the backend layer, is where the system receives the data subsequent to its cleansing and transformation by specific tools.
The advantages of a data warehouse
A data warehouse gathers and analyzes multidimensional data. In an organization with numerous branches and hundreds of sales representatives each creating unique customer records, for instance, this becomes exceedingly complex to analyze and obtain a comprehensive overview of.
However, data can be readily analyzed when all sales executives utilize a data warehouse to store information from a single source.It is economical and multi-user-capable in real-time action.
The standardization and cleansing of data from a single source facilitates the analysis of historical information. This reduces the likelihood that errors and inconsistencies will occur.
A data warehouse prepares private and secure data for use by data mining tools and queries.
Analyzing the vast quantities of data generated by an organization, including point-of-sale, employee, and client information, which is subject to frequent updates across multiple levels, presents a formidable challenge in terms of making informed decisions. At this point, your business will require a data warehouse. Important for decision-making, data warehouses resolve the majority of business intelligence issues.
