Data Warehouse
A data warehouse is a relational database that is designed for query and analysis rather than for transaction processing. Data warehouses are designed to help you analyze your data and accommodate ad hoc queries and reports. They contain consolidated data derived from transaction data.
There are currently two data warehouses supported by SOU. They are the Student Data Warehouse and the Recruits and Applicants Data Warehouse. The Finance Data Warehouse and HR Data Warehouse used by Business Services and the Human Resource department are maintained and supported by OUS. For more information on the Finance Data Warehouse, click on the FIS Data Warehouse Guided Tour word document. The Student Data Warehouse contains information from the Banner Information System about students at Southern Oregon University. The Student Data Warehouse includes demographic data, current standing, academic history, registration, grades, course schedules and degrees obtained for the students. The Recruits and Applicants Data Warehouse includes information about the most current recruits, applicants and admits to SOU.
