How Data Mart Works
A data mart offers a specialized subset of enterprise data, akin to a boutique compared to a warehouse. It enables quicker access to insights for users. Despite its smaller scale, building a data mart can be as complex as a data warehouse. However, automation streamlines the process, ensuring fast delivery of business intelligence solutions without sacrificing quality or governance.
Data Mart vs Data Warehouse
A data warehouse serves as a broad foundation layer for your entire enterprise, storing data in a structured, cleaned and governed way. Data warehouses typically employ a data warehouse modeling methodology, such as 3NF or Data Vault 2.0.
A data mart architecture, on the other hand, typically serves a specific subject area within your organization, such as finance or HR, and contains a specific set of analytics models and data sources appropriate for that subject area only. Data marts generally take on the form of a dimensional model or an information mart if employing the Data Vault 2.0 approach within the broader enterprise.
