The Difference Between Data Lakes and Data Warehouses
In brief, data lakes are designed for exploratory analysis and data mining, while data warehouses are optimised for querying and reporting. The choice between a data lake and a data warehouse depends on the specific needs of your business, the type of data you handle and which questions you need answering most regularly.
At TouchstoneBI, we can help you determine which solution is right for your business and provide the consulting and support services you need to deploy and manage a successful data management solution.
What is a Data Lake
A data lake is a storage system that allows businesses to store raw, unstructured data at any scale. It is a centralised repository that can store data from various sources such as social media, emails, sensors, and more. Unlike a traditional data warehouse, a data lake stores data in its native format, allowing businesses to process and analyse it later.
By using a data lake, businesses can store large amounts of data at a lower cost. Since data is stored in its raw format, businesses can process and analyse it using various tools and technologies. A data lake also enables businesses to create a centralised repository of data, making it easier to access and use data across various departments.
What is a Data Warehouse?
A data warehouse is a centralised data solution that stores structured data from various sources. Warehouses are designed to better support reporting, data analysis, and data mining functions.
A data warehouse could be the right fit for your business if you need access to accurate and real-time data insights. A data warehouse could enable your business to create a unified view of your data. By helping you to consolidate disparate information into a single source of truth, a data warehouse could empower you to make more informed business decisions, faster.
