Introduction to Data Warehousing and Data Mining

Corporate decision-makers require access to all the organization’s data, wherever it is located. To provide a comprehensive analysis of the organization, its business, its requirements and any trends, require access to not only the current data in the database but also to historical data. To facilitate this type of analysis, data warehouses have been created to contain data drawn from several sources, maintained by different departments of the organization. This course will involve an in-depth study of various concepts needed to design and develop a data warehouse and its maintenance. It also introduces data warehouse security, data mining and end-user access tools for a data warehouse.
