Not all business require a Data Warehouse Staging Area. For many
businesses it is feasible to use ETL to copy data directly from
operational databases into the Data Warehouse.
In addition to a
relational/multidimensional database, a
data warehouse environment often
consists of an ETL solution, an OLAP
engine, client analysis tools, and other
applications that manage the process of
gathering data and delivering it to
business users.
