Data warehousing is the process of collecting, storing, and managing large volumes of data from various sources in a central repository. This repository, known as a data warehouse, is designed to facilitate efficient querying, reporting, and analysis. Data warehouses integrate data from multiple sources, ensuring consistency and accuracy, and provide a unified view of an organisation’s information.
Single Source of Truth: A data warehouse consolidates data from disparate sources, providing a single, consistent view of the organisation’s data. This eliminates discrepancies and ensures all users are working with the same information.
Improved Decision-Making: By organising and structuring data in a way that is easily accessible and understandable, data warehousing enables quick and informed decision-making. Users can run complex queries and generate reports that provide valuable insights.
Enhanced Data Quality: Data warehousing involves cleansing and transforming data, improving its quality and reliability. This ensures that decisions are based on accurate and up-to-date information.
Increased Efficiency: Centralising data in a single repository reduces the time and effort required to retrieve information from multiple sources. This streamlines reporting and analysis processes, saving time and resources.
Scalability: Data warehouses are designed to handle large volumes of data, making it easier to scale as the organisation grows. They can accommodate increasing amounts of data without sacrificing performance.
Historical Insights: Data warehouses store historical data, allowing businesses to analyse trends over time. This can be invaluable for forecasting, trend analysis, and strategic planning.

While both databases and data warehouses store data, they serve different purposes. A database is used for day-to-day operations and transactional processing, whereas a data warehouse is designed for querying and analysing large datasets, often for strategic decision-making.
A data warehouse provides a centralised, organised, and high-quality data repository, enabling quick and informed decision-making. Users can run complex queries and generate reports that provide valuable insights into business operations and trends.
A traditional data warehouse is hosted on-premises within an organisation’s data center, while a cloud data warehouse is hosted on cloud platforms like Microsoft Azure and Microsoft Fabric. Cloud data warehouses offer advantages such as scalability, flexibility, and cost-efficiency.
The implementation time varies depending on the complexity and size of the project. It can range from a few months to over a year. Key factors include the scope of the project, data sources, data volume, and specific business requirements.
Yes, existing data from legacy systems can be migrated to a new data warehouse. The process involves careful planning, data mapping, and transformation to ensure data integrity and minimal disruption to business operations.
A data warehouse stores structured data optimised for querying and analysis, whereas a data lake stores raw, unstructured data that can be used for various purposes, including data science and machine learning. Data warehouses are ideal for structured data and historical analysis, while data lakes offer flexibility for handling diverse data types and formats.
