Data Warehouse
Centralized analytical storage.
A Data Warehouse (DWH) is the foundation of institutional decision-making. It functions by aggregating data from various sources—such as CRM, ERP, and internal databases—into a single, unified environment. Unlike operational databases that handle high-speed 'Online Transactional Processing' (OLTP), a DWH is optimized for 'Online Analytical Processing' (OLAP), using multi-dimensional modeling (Star and Snowflake schemas) to enable fast, complex queries over historical timeframes.

🤓 Expert Deep Dive
## Star vs. Snowflake Schema
- Star Schema: The simplest modeling style. A central 'Fact' table (e.g., Sales) is connected to 'Dimension' tables (e.g., Dates, Stores, Products) by as few joins as possible. Highly performant.
- Snowflake Schema: A more normalized version where Dimension tables are further split. This reduces data redundancy but increases query complexity (more joins).
