Analytical Data Processing and Reports Generation Systems
Today's progress of hardware and software development allows for extensive maintenance of online information databases at various management levels. In the process of their activities industrial enterprises, corporations, departmental structures, government authorities have accumulates huge volumes of data. They contain significant potential possibilities to use analytical information that enables to discover hidden trends, devise a development strategy, and find new solutions. Recently, in the world there have formed a number of new concepts of corporate data storage and analysis:
- Data Warehouse
- On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP)
- Data Mining
OLAP technologies are closely welded with Data Warehouse building techniques and with Data Mining, i.e., intellectual processing methods. Therefore, the best way is to take a complex approach to their implementation.
