ActiveWarehouse

Data Warehouse on Rails

The ActiveWarehouse plugin simplifies building data warehouses in Rails. A data warehouse is a database designed specifically for analytical use as opposed to operational transaction processing. Typically a data warehouse houses data which spans several years and is sourced from numerous operational databases. Data warehouses are usually highly de-normalized which is contrary to transactional systems which tend to be normalized. The links in the side bar provide additional information.
