Your organization is
growing, and their managers from different states
are in need of data warehousing. You should
pre-compute database information into a summary data
aggregated to be easily understood.
They are asking you to
create a materialized view to pre-compute and store
information manually on the number of employees with
their total salary paid for each department (to
project the employees� payment budget). They want,
when new employees and their salaries are entered
into the base tables, to be able to manually update
their materialized view with its summary, aggregated
data, to reflect these changes from the base tables.
They should be able to
download a subset of data from the company�s
headquarter table to another company associated
servers, assuming that their system is not in a
distributed environment.
In a distributed
environment, they could use materialized views to
replicate data at distributed sites and synchronize
updates between these sites.
Now, the company wants
the ability to create an aggregated snapshot for the
accounting department only. The required data
include the total number of employees, and the total
paid salaries for the accounting department only.
Once the aggregated snapshot was created, it should
define, in such a way, that it can update the
materialized view once a month without any human
intervention. The snapshot must be refreshed, based
on the rule that your client asked.
