Data Lake and Data warehouse are both strong contenders when it comes to storing Big data. Many users cannot decide which one is the better option due to lack of proper understanding about the two. Let us now explore each one closely, so that an informed decision can be made to suit every business need.
Data lakes can simply be defined as a highly scalable storage repository that holds large amounts of raw data in its natural format until it is required for use. Data lakes contain data that comes from varied sources and includes data in all kinds of formats. In a way it resembles the actual lakes and the data comes in from various sources and the structured, unstructured and semi-structured data is stored together.
Data warehousing is combining different technologies and components to enable strategic organizing and usage of the data. The data in the data warehouses are cleaned and transformed before storing.
Let us now compare Data lakes with Data warehouses to study their effectuality:
Therefore to summarize, we can say that it is better to consider both the data storage approaches closely and depending upon the business needs a choice can be made. For instance, if an organization has a fully functioning data warehouse, then it is better to implement a data lake together with the data warehouse to get the best of both worlds.
