Data Warehouse Architecture

Data is stored in the ETL process.

ETL Process:

  1. Extraction - Data is extracted from various heterogeneous data sources, such as:

    • Production data
    • Operational data
    • Databases
    • Enterprise data, etc.
  2. Transformation - The extracted data is transformed and stored in a standardized data format into:

    • Several data marts
    • Corresponding metadata
  3. Loading - The transformed data is loaded into the data warehouse and data mining software to generate:

    • Consolidated data reports
    • Further analytics
