Enterprise Business Intelligence (EBI)
Most companies have multiple Oracle instances (such as ODSand DW) with an ETL Engine (Informatica) and Reporting tool(Business Objects) all rolled into an Enterprise BusinessIntelligence (EBI) Environment.ODS is the Operational Data Store (a near real time copy of thecompany's Transactional data) and DW is the Datawarehouse (acollection of aggregated corporate data).The ETL Engine (such as Informatica) transforms and loads datacontained in the ODS into the DW.The Reporting Engine (such as Business Objects) reports off data from both the ODS and DW.This presentation covers the storage design for the DW.Typical size of an DW is around 5-10TB for a large softwarecompany.
Though the typical Enterprise Warehouse is small in size, it isby no means less busy.
