Data Mart
Data Mart
Topics:
1. A separate ETL proceses is developed for each data mart, which can yield costly redundant data and
processing efforts.
3. There is no capability to drill down into greater detail or into related facts in other data marts or a
shared data repository, so analysis is limited, or at best, very difficult.
4. Scaling costs are excessive because every new application, which creates a separate data mart, repeats
all the extract and load ateps.
5. If there is an attempt to make the separate data marts consistent, the cost to do is quite high.
- A data mart filled exclusively from the enterprise data warehouse and its recociled data.
1. It allows for the concept of a data warehouse to be proved by working on a series of small
projects.
2. The length of time unyil there is some benefit from data warehousing is reduced because the
organization is not delayed until all data are centralized.
2. Data are moved into the data warehouserather than to a separate staging area.
3. New data marts can be created quickly becuase no physical database or database technology
needs to be created or acquired and no loading routines need to be written.
4. Data marts are always up-to-date because data in a view are created when teh view is
refernced; . . . . .
An enterprise data warehouse thata ccepts near-real-time feeds of transactional data from the
systems of record, analyzes warehouse data, and in near-real-time relays business rules to tje data
warehouse and systems of record so that immediate actin can be taken in response to business events.
-Detailed, current data intended to be the single, authorative source for all the decision
support applications.
1. Operational Metadata
Transient data
- Data in which changes to existing recoerds are written over previous records, thus destroying the
orevious data content.
Peridic data
- Data that are never physically altered or deleted once they have been added to the store.
