"So ... as far as data warehousing & data marts, can anyone other than
Richard provide a concise synopsis. I would greatly appreciate -- and
Richard might, too."

"Data warehousing" is the big buzzword of the late 90's which
basically just describes a system of both storing data and
the processes/people that massage the data and make it readily accessible for business decisions. It's nothing new under the sun.

This is, of course, my definition, the book definitions vary. The
funny thing is, everyone is talking about data warehouses, but
few people are actually doing it.

As an aside, generally, "true" data warehouses are large, enterprise
level systems which may use a distributed design and many server
level extensions. This is where ORACLE shines and it is also where
Microsoft is non-existent for now.
