Abstract
A data warehouse system has two main architectures: the data flow architecture and the system architecture. The data flow architecture is about how the data stores are arranged within a data warehouse and how the data flows from the source systems to the users through these data stores. The system architecture is about the physical configuration of the servers, network, software, storage, and clients. In this chapter, I will discuss the data flow architecture first and then the system architecture.
