No, this is not data that is necessarily subject to return to the source systems. In most cases, this is data that is strictly useful for data analysis. In addition, third-party applications are often used in SaaS mode and it is not possible to add data to the source system.

The idea is to add additional analysis data at the warehouse level to enable rich and dynamic BI solutions.

Similarly, the idea is that the data specialist team can do the work with data world technologies (Python) without needing to have knowledge of C# development for example.
