The fundamental concept behind data warehousing is to incorporate data from multiple databases into a single database.

Decision Support Systems (DSS) and Executive Information Systems (EIS) are querying software used to provide the information required to make business decisions. The difference between the two types of systems lies in the type of information maintained in the system, and the queries that are pre-defined in the system. The DSS provides an analysis of the data that is maintained by the various systems within the organization, while the EIS often includes information from outside information sources.
