Components of EIP in Detail: Data Warehouses and Marts
Data Warehouses and Marts create an environment where data is stored, managed and optimized for analysis. These optimized platforms are used by companies to support complex and enterprise wide Business Intelligence solutions.
Data Marts are focussed domains extracted from Warehouses allowing greater precision and speed for analysis.
Most Data Mart vendors and many Database vendors have begun providing “suites” that also include Data Management and Business Intelligence software.
Data Management systems perform Extract, Transform and Load (ETL) tasks, clean data and facilitate scheduling, administration and metadata management for Data Warehouses and Marts.
