Hi all,

I have been working with Oracle 92. I have no experience with Oracle Warehouse. In my current company, I was told the database is a warehouse. I can connect to it using sql plus or pl/sql developer. The "warehouse" looks the same as the database I worked with before. How do I tell if a database is a warehouse or just a regular database. What's the big difference between the two?

Could someone send me some link about data warehouse?

Thank you!

Janet
