- AReduces disk space requirements
- BMakes updating information easier
- CImproves information quality
- DAll of the THESE ARE CORRECT
2Why do firms create DW (data warehouses) when they alreay have databases ?
- ANumbers and types of operational databases increased as businesses grew
- BMany companies had information scattered across multiple systems with different formats
- CCompleting reporting requests from numerous operational systems took days or weeks
- DAll of these are correct
3In DW(Datawarehousing) literature, what does ETL refer to?
- AIt is a process of entering, tracking, and loading data into a database
- BIt is a process that extracts information from internal and external databases, transforms it using a common set of enterprise definitions, and loads(unloads) it into(from) a data warehouse
- CIt is a process performed at the end of the data warehouse model prior to putting the information in a cube
- DIt is a process performed at the beginning of the data mining model
4Which of the following contains a subset of data warehouse information?
- AData miner
- BData mart
- CData pool
- DData analyzing tool
5Which of the following refers to the representation of multidimensional information?
- ABlock
- BSquare
- CColumn
- DCube
6Which of the following is not an example of schemata used to provide multidimensionality of DW.
- AStar Schema
- BConstellation Schema
- CCube schema
- DSnowflake Schema
7Which of the following is not a correct statement about DW?
- AEnforcing completeness often weakens the accuracy of data
- BStar Schema uses nomalized tables as its dimension tables
- CSnowflake Schema uses nomalized tables as its dimension tables
- DETL is an important process in creating a DW because data extracted from data bases designed for various applications tend to show inconsistencies.
8Which of the following refers to the process of analyzing data to extract information not offered by the raw data alone?
- AData integrity
- BData mart analysis

- CEmergence of so called “NoSQL” database suggests that traditional data base model (RDB), with its associated query languages (SQL), has limitations to resolve the BIG Data Problem.
- DEmergence of new BIG Data technologies suggests that all current DW technology be completely replaced by this new technology (e.g., Hadoop, MapReduce, NoSQL Database)
