Data warehouses, sometimes referred to as a Decision Support System (DSS), are found in almost every organization, including the government, medical, Internet, phone, financial, and retail industries. Data flows into a DSS from internal transactional databases and external sources including cell phones, GPS devices, TV set-top boxes, ATMs, credit card usage, RFID merchandise chips, medical images, the U.S. Census Bureau, and a host of others. Google Analytics even supplies detailed data on the effectiveness of corporate advertisements by examining a customer’s web activity as they browse online catalogs and make purchases.
