  • Data Warehouse: A large, structured repository of integrated data from various sources, used for complex querying and historical analysis.
  • Data Mart: A more focused, department-specific subset of a data warehouse providing quick data retrieval and analysis.
  • Data Lake: A vast pool of raw, unstructured data stored in its native format until it's needed for use.
  • Delta Lake: An open-source storage layer that brings reliability and ACID transactions to data lakes, unifying batch, and streaming data processing.
  • Data Pipeline: A process that moves and transforms data from one system to another, often used to populate data warehouses and data lakes.
  • Data Mesh: An architectural and organizational approach where data ownership and delivery are decentralized across domain-specific, cross-functional teams.
