Enterprise data warehouses

This paper discusses enterprise data
warehouses. By this we mean an analytic
warehouse that also incorporates
requirements to support such things as
master data management and operational
BI where there are a lot of look-ups and
small queries running alongside the more
complex needs of analytics. This puts a much
greater emphasis on the ability to manage
mixed query workloads. As a result, we have
excluded from this update all products that
do meet a certain level of functionality with
respect to mixed queries. Note that products
thus excluded may be entirely suitable for
deployment as an EDW where requirements
are simpler or less stringent.
