How to build reporting dashboard with Pentaho BI

Data Warehouse

Many companies nowadays use several databases for CRM, HR, and accounting. Top management receives information from different departments. Data mismatch reduces the level of confidence in the data and takes time to fix the errors.

Data Warehouse allows you to get reports in no time. It provides reports in different formats, including HTML, PDF, and Excel files. Data Warehouse contains all the company’s data that allows one to analyze the whole organization, not the separated departments. One can research who attracts the most profitable clients and why some of them are still unprofitable. Data Warehouse allows one to track profits and costs online. Data loss in the original system will not affect reporting because data in the data warehouse will still be available.

As a rule, data are copied from the original databases to the Data Warehouse at night when the workload is at its minimum. Data Warehouse checks new data for errors, builds links between different sources. Additional calculations speed up reports that are finally sent to the management.
