Discuss the reasons why an organisation may have one or more Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) system but only a single data warehouse.

What will be an ideal response?


An organisation may have several OLTPs due to the range and complexity of the business processes
that support the business. Several OLTP may also be the result of mergers and acquisitions. It is also
possible for an organisation with a single focus to be well supported by a single OLTP. However the
goal for an organisation is to have a single repository of data to support analysis i.e. data warehouse
that offers a single version of the truth.
