  1. Chapter 13 The Data Warehouse Database Systems: Design, Implementation, and Management, Fifth Edition, Rob and Coronel

  2. In this chapter, you will learn: • How operational data and decision support differ • What a data warehouse is and how its data are prepared • What star schemas are and how they are constructed • What steps are required to implement a data warehouse successfully • What data mining is and what role it plays in decision support Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  3. The Need for Data Analysis • External and internal forces require tactical and strategic decisions • Search for competitive advantage • Business environments are dynamic • Decision-making cycle time is reduced • Different managers require different decision support systems (DSS) Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  4. Decision Support Systems • Decision Support • Is a methodology • Extracts information from data • Uses information as basis for decision making Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  5. Decision Support Systems • Decision support system (DSS) • Arrangement of computerized tools • Used to assist managerial decision • Extensive data “massaging” to produce information • Used at all levels in organization • Tailored to focus on specific areas and needs • Interactive • Provides ad hoc query tools Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  6. DSS Components Figure 13.1 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  7. Operational vs. Decision Support Data • Operational data • Relational, normalized database • Optimized to support transactions • Real time updates • DSS • Snapshot of operational data • Summarized • Large amounts of data • Data analyst viewpoint • Timespan • Granularity • Dimensionality Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  8. The DSS Database Requirements • Database schema • Support complex (non-normalized) data • Extract multidimensional time slices • Data extraction and filtering • End-user analytical interface • Database size • Very large databases (VLDBs) • Contains redundant and duplicated data Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  9. Data Warehouse • Integrated • Centralized • Holds data retrieved from entire organization • Subject-Oriented • Optimized to give answers to diverse questions • Used by all functional areas • Time Variant • Flow of data through time • Projected data • Non-Volatile • Data never removed • Always growing Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  10. Creating a Data Warehouse Figure 13.3 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  11. Data Marts • Single-subject data warehouse subset • Decision support to small group • Can be test for exploring potential benefits of Data warehouses • Address local or departmental problems Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  12. DSS Architectural Styles • Traditional mainframe-based OLTP • Managerial information system (MIS) with 3GL • First-generation departmental DSS • First-generation enterprise data warehouse using RDMS • Second-generation data warehouse using MDBMS Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  13. Twelve Data Warehouse Rules 1. Separated from operational environment 2. Data are integrated 3. Contains historical data over long time horizon 4. Snapshot data captured at given time 5. Subject-oriented data 6. Mainly read-only data with periodic batch updates from operational source, no online updates 7. Development life cycle differs from classical one, data driven not process driven Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  14. Twelve Data Warehouse Rules (Con’t.) 8. Contains different levels of data detail • Current and old detail • Lightly and highly summarized 9. Characterized by read-only transactions to large data sets 10. Environment has system to trace data resources, transformation, and storage 11. Metadata critical components • Identify and define data elements • Provide the source, transformation, integration, storage, usage, relationships, and history of data elements 12. Contains charge-back mechanism for usage • Enforces optimal use of data Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  15. Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) • Advanced data analysis environment • Supports decision making, business modeling, and operations research activities • Characteristics of OLAP • Use multidimensional data analysis techniques • Provide advanced database support • Provide easy-to-use end-user interfaces • Support client/server architecture Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  20. Relational OLAP (ROLAP) • OLAP functionality • Uses relational DB query tools • Extensions to RDBMS • Multidimensional data schema support • Data access language and query performance optimized for multidimensional data • Support for very large databases (VLDBs) Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  21. Typical ROLAP Client/Server Architecture Figure 13.10 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  22. Multidimensional OLAP (MOLAP) • OLAP functionality to multidimensional databases (MDBMS) • Stored data in multidimensional data cube • N-dimensional cubes called hypercubes • Cube cache memory speeds processing • Affected by how the database system handles density of data cube called sparsity Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  23. MOLAP Client/Server Architecture Figure 13.11 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

  24. Star Schema • Data-modeling technique • Maps multidimensional decision support into relational database • Yield model for multidimensional data analysis while preserving relational structure of operational DB • Four Components: • Facts • Dimensions • Attributes • Attribute hierarchies Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel
