The data lakehouse is a relatively new data architecture concept, first championed by Cloudera, which offers both storage and analytics capabilities as part of the same solution, in contrast to the concepts for data lake and data warehouse which, respectively, store data in native format, and structured data, often in SQL format.

OLAP reporting has traditionally relied on a data warehouse. Again, this entails creating a copy of the transactional data in the ERP system, but it also involves some preprocessing of data into so-called “cubes” so that you can retrieve aggregate totals and present them much faster.

For more sophisticated multidimensional reporting functions, however, a more advanced approach to staging data is required. The Data Warehouse Approach. Data warehouses gained momentum back in the early 1990s as companies dealing with growing volumes of data were seeking ways to make analytics faster and more accessible.

Most commonly, we think of data as numbers that show information such as sales figures, marketing data, payroll totals, financial statistics, and other data that can be counted and measured objectively. This is quantitative data. It’s “hard,” structured data that answers questions such as “how many?”

Organizations don’t know what they have anymore and so can’t fully capitalize on it — the majority of data generated goes unused in decision making.
