What is a data warehouse? Why does my organization need it? How exactly does my membership benefit from enhanced data analytics that result from a data warehouse?
In essence, a data warehouse is a repository for numerous data elements and it is organized in a manner very similar to the way your local grocery store stocks its shelves. For example, in a grocery store, the peanut butter is typically close to the jelly, which also tends to be in the bread aisle; things that tend to be used together are stocked in close proximity to each other.
