Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW) is a strategic, mission-critical function that impacts the core operations of an enterprise. It is distinct from traditional data warehousing which is usually limited to departmental business intelligence. EDW supports enterprise-wide business requirements and the associated business applications. It is critical to helping IT leadership lead enterprise innovation while heeding the common corporate mandate to "do more with less."An Enterprise Data Warehouse is a common data foundation that provides any and all data for business needs across applications and divisions.
Enterprise Data Warehousing (EDW) is the process of designing, building, and managing an enterprise data warehouse to meet the requirements of consuming applications. A data integration platform that powers the ongoing lifecycle of data access, discovery, quality, integration, and delivery is critical to the construction and ongoing integrity of effective Enterprise Data Warehousing.
Organizations embarking on EDW initiatives can expect the following benefits:
1. Turn Enterprise Data Warehousing (EDW) into a strategic competitive weapon
- By designing and implementing EDW to support an enterprise-wide variety of business requirements and support multiple business applications, EDW reduces the delivery time of new business capabilities and maximizes the value of existing enterprise assets.
- EDW enables organizations to measure and demonstrate business value across all key performance indicators.
- With EDW, IT executives transform IT's role from "technology implementer" to "enterprise innovation leader."
2. Address top-priority compliance requirements
- EDW equips organizations to certify the accuracy of their financial and operational data under Sarbanes-Oxley and other regulatory requirements.
- EDW tracks and documents where their data came from, how it has changed, and who has changed it.
3. Improve alignment between IT and business
- EDW enables IT to deliver, through a consistent approach, a broad range of initiatives, including data warehousing, data migration/consolidation, data synchronization, master data management, and cross-enterprise data integration, fostering reuse and accelerating time to market.
- DW promotes cross-functional and cross-enterprise collaboration by ensuring that data is provided with its relevant business context and meaning.
4. Increase productivity
- By taking advantage of mature data integration technologies and implementing an Integration Competency Center, organizations can use EDW to promote reuse and reduce delivery costs.
- EDW can also ensure right-time data delivery across an enterprise, enabling operational decision support.
