These databases have several data problems and to comply with SOX, the design of the data warehouse should be changed due to the volumes of data required and complexity of queries issued. The mergers and acquisitions that happen nowadays may change the structure of the data warehouse since the acquiring company must integrate the acquired company’s data into own compliance environment. Data Warehouse provides data in a single view (data warehouse stores information from different heterogeneous resources) for easier reporting. and helps to view and manage data from end-to-end business processes.
