and Kimball’s definition of Data Warehousing. Bill Inmon advocates a top-down development approach that adapts traditional relational database tools to the development needs of an enterprise wide data warehouse. From this enterprise wide data store‚ individual departmental databases are developed to serve most decision support needs. Ralph Kimball‚ on the other hand‚ suggests a bottom-up approach that uses dimensional modeling‚ a data modeling approach unique to data warehousing. Rather than building

Data Anomalies Normalization is the process of splitting relations into well-structured relations that allow users to inset‚ delete‚ and update tuples without introducing database inconsistencies. Without normalization many problems can occur when trying to load an integrated conceptual model into the DBMS. These problems arise from relations that are generated directly from user views are called anomalies. There are three types of anomalies: update‚ deletion and insertion anomalies. An update anomaly

A glimpse of Big Data Jan. 2013 What is big data? “Big data is not a precise term; rather it’s a characterization of the never ending accumulation of all kinds of data‚ most of it unstructured. It describes data sets that are growing exponentially and that are too large‚ too raw or too unstructured for analysis using relational database techniques. Whether terabytes or petabytes‚ the precise amount is less the issue than where the data ends up and how it is used.”------Cite from EMC’s report

DATA INTEGRATION Data integration involves combining data residing in different sources and providing users with a unified view of these data. This process becomes significant in a variety of situations‚ which include both commercial (when two similar companies need to merge their databases and scientific (combining research results from different bioinformatics repositories‚ for example) domains. Data integration appears with increasing frequency as the volume and the need to share existing data explodes
