System Background and Purpose: The EDW is adata warehouse that provides a single,
logical view ofproduct and sales data across DeCA allowing end users to make informed

transformed data ismaintained in aTeradata database ina format that provides quick access to
required raw data, summary data, and reports. EDW receives data from the Commissary
Advanced Resale Transaction System (CARTS), the DeCA Interactive Business System (DIBS),
the Commissary On-Line Product Pricing System (COPPS), Defense Business Management
System (DBMS), Manpower Database (MDB) and the Accounting and Inventory Management
System (AIMS).
DeCA hosts the EDW on aset ofclustered Teradata servers and the extraction, transformation
and load processes on anHP-UX server called RP 8400.
EDW provides the ability for end users to obtain business data critical to decision making. EDW
provides data toboth DeCA staff andbusiness partners.
