Data warehouses are used by different (____ ______) set of users than operational databases, such as data analysts and decision makers

much smaller

Data mining

"the process of discovering meaningful new correlations, patterns, and trends by sifting through large amounts of data stored in repositories, using pattern recognition technologies as well as statistical and mathematical techniques"

Why have a separate analytics DB?

1. Time Horizon Difference 2. Performance Reasons 3. Difference in Data Structuring

big data encompasses _____ _____ of stored data

80-90%

recency-frequency-monetary value (RFM)

A CRM metric and method for analyzing customer value. Recency: When was the most recent purchase by the customer? Frequency: How often does the customer purchase over a period of time? Monetary value: What is the monetary value of the customer's purchase over a period of time?

Business Intelligence

A broad term encompassing analytical use of data. Incorporates various methods (including database management, data warehousing, and data mining) that give companies ability to discover and utilize information they already own and turn it into the knowledge that directly impacts corporate performance.

Data Mart

A data store based on the same principle as a data warehouse, but with a more limited space.

Data Warehouse (EDW)

A system used for reporting and data analysis and is considered a core component of business intelligence

Slice and Dice

Adds, replaces, or eliminates specified dimension attributes (or particular values) from the already displayed result

Data Warehouses:

Are modeled and structured differently than operational databases. Use different types of technologies for storage and retrieval than operational databases.

SCM Automation

Enabled by the use of digital information and other technological advances

ETL includes the following tasks:

Extracting analytically useful data from the operational data sources Transforming such data so that it conforms to the structure of the target data warehouse model, while ensuring the quality of the transformed data Loading the transformed and quality assured data into the target data warehouse

Extraction-Transformation-Load (ETL)

Facilitates the retrieval of data from operational databases into the data warehouses

Example OLAP Query

For each individual store, show separately for male and female shoppers the number of product units sold for each product category

Analytical Information Examples

Information reflecting trends, sales, product statistics, and future growth productions

Operational (transactional) Information Examples

Information reflecting withdrawing cash from an ATM, making an airline reservation, and purchasing stocks

Executive dashboards

Intended for use by higher level decision makers within an organization contains an organized, easy-to-read display of a number of critically important queries describing the performance of the organization in general, the usage of executive dashboards should require little or no effort in training

Difference in data structuring

It is often impossible to structure a database which can be used in an efficient manner for both operational and analytical purposes

examples of sales support metrics and KPIs

Leads-to-conversions rate, average profit per customer in a time period, upsell revenues in a time period

Source systems can include external data sources, such as...

Market research data, census data, stock market data, weather data, geospatial data

Data warehouses and data mining

Mining transactional (operational) databases containing data related to current day-today organizational activities can be of use in certain situations, but generally isn't ideal. The enterprise-wide corporate data warehouse contains all the information from the operational data sources that has analytical value.

Front-end/BI applications

Most users who need to access analytical data in data warehouses and data marts can not engage in direct access (as they do not know how to use OLAP/BI tools). Instead, they use front-end/BI applications

examples of customer service metrics and KPIs

Number of complaints in a time period, customer ratings of service, average time to complete problem resolution

DW front-end (BI) applications

Often referred to as BI (Business Intelligence) applications. Provide access to the data warehouse for users who are engaging in indirect use.

Operational Databases collect...

Operational (transactional) Information

Source systems

Operational databases that provide analytically useful information for the data warehouse's subjects of analysis

MapReduce

Parallel computing divides complex tasks into a sequence of smaller tasks that are performed in parallel on multiple computers. Using multiple computers at the same time (parallel computing) vastly reduces the time needed for processing. Traditional parallel approaches are specialized (expensive) computers. Map reduce technique utilizes regular commodity (cheap) computers.

Association rules are expressed in the form:

People who buy X tend to buy Y

Mythical association rule

People who buy diapers tend to buy beer

OLAP/BI tool features

Slice and Dice Pivot (rotate) Drill Up/Drill Down

EDW components

Source systems (operational databases) Extraction-transformation-load (ETL) infrastructure Data warehouse (analytical database) Front-end (BI) applications

Time horizon difference

The difference between how long the data is useful for transactional vs. analytical needs.

Every operational database that is used as a source system for the data warehouse has two purposes:

The original operational purpose. As a source system for the data warehouse.

Performance Reasons

The performance of operational day-to-day tasks involving data use can be severely diminished if such tasks must compete for computing resources with analytical tasks

Online Analytical Processing (OLAP)/BI

The process of retrieving data from data warehouses and/or data marts for analytical purposes.

Online Transaction Processing (OLTP)

The process of updating (i.e. inserting, modifying, and deleting) and retrieving data from databases for operational purposes

Support measures...

The significance of the rule. We are interested in rules with relatively high support.

True or False: The same fact can have both an operational and analytical purpose

True
