Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Datawarehouse Sizes.....informal poll.
I don't think that size has much to do with it. You can have lots of data
but if it's all in a few tables then it doesn't qualify as a datawarehouse
(IMHO).
My short take on this is that a datawarehouse is a OLTP database with
de-normalized data that supports a DSS application.
