The traditional form of storing digital data has been disk storage. However, the huge advances in technology means that there has been a huge need for data storage to evolve to keep up with the fast-changing times. Microsoft SQL Server has gone through a huge overhaul in order to keep up with the amount of data storage that is necessary, and that is where data warehousing comes into play. For many online applications, there is a need to not only access small amount of information from disk storage, but large amounts in the forms of sets. SQL Server allows access to these sets of data in a sequential manner that optimizes computer. This proprietary technology makes SQL Server the go-to system to fit these computing needs. SQL Server has also solved the problem of changing from “data marts” to data warehouses. As companies grow, their digital storage needs change and expand as well. Previously, transferring a system over to an SQL Server meant having to destroy old data during the transfer. This was the source of a lot of data loss and server problems. However, the new versions of SQL Server have built-in systems that help organizations transfer to the larger data storage system. The costs of data storage and data warehousing are becoming a huge concerns for small businesses and corporations alike. It is a known rule of thumb that the larger the main server, the more expensive it is. SQL Server also addresses this problem by allowing data warehousing to be run on multiple processors – in the end rendering it much cheaper than having one main data warehousing server. SQL Servers uses the “hub-and-spoke” system, which allows data warehousing to be broken up by multiple systems without losing any data. Read more: Journey to SQL Authority with Pinal Dave
