Abstract
Data warehousing and Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) technologies are now moving onto handling complex data that mostly originate from the web. However, integrating such data into a decision-support process requires their representation in a form processable by OLAP and/or data mining techniques. We present in this paper a complex data warehousing methodology that exploits eXtensible Markup Language (XML) as a pivot language. Our approach includes the integration of complex data in an ODS, in the form of XML documents; their dimensional modelling and storage in an XML data warehouse; and their analysis with combined OLAP and data mining techniques. We also address the crucial issue of performance in XML warehouses.
