the main repository of the organization's historical data, its corporate memory
In other words, the data warehouse contains
aggregate data suitable for decision making
the raw material for management's decision support system
the critical factor leading to the use of a data warehouse is that a data analyst can perform complex queries and analysis (such as data mining) on the information without slowing down the operational systems
Groupware
Groupware produces shared thoughts, shared media, and shared models.
Collective thought is moved into a higher level when the traditional group interaction is eclipsed by the use of such collaborative tools.
Efficient sharing of ideas can be transformed into shared understanding and into shared priorities
