Match the following terms with their definitions in the context of Data Warehousing:
Data Warehousing = Transforms raw data into useful information ELT = Extracts data from source applications and databases and loads it into a data warehouse layer Ad-hoc reporting = Uses raw data, preprocessed data, and transformed information Raw data = Unprocessed data used in the ELT process and ad-hoc reporting
Match the following steps with their corresponding process in Data Warehousing:
Extract = First step in the ELT process Load = Second step in the ELT process Transform = Third step in the ELT process Ad-hoc reporting = Uses the information resulting from the ELT process
Match the following components with their role in Data Warehousing:
Raw data = Used in the extraction step of the ELT process Data warehouse layer = Where data is loaded during the ELT process Transformed data = Result of the third step in the ELT process Useful information = Used in subsequent use cases like ad-hoc reporting
Test your knowledge on data warehousing and its major use case of transforming raw data into useful information. Explore the concepts of ELT (Extract, Load, Transform), data preprocessing, and the role of information in ad-hoc reporting.
