Modular e-Commerce Data Warehouse using Microservices

Abstract

Data warehouses are systems that are used today by many companies for storing a large amount of structured data. Microservices allow splitting the whole software system into multiple parts, which can be deployed separately and work on their own. These services communicate and manage individual software functionalities. The paper describes a proposal of a data warehouse built with a microservice architecture. Also, the microservice data warehouse is compared with a classic monolithic data warehouse.
