Data Mining and Data Warehousing provides a clear, structured, and comprehensive coverage of two key areas in the field of data management and analytics. Designed to bridge theory with practice, the book explains how raw data can be transformed into meaningful knowledge that supports effective decision-making in organizations.  

The book begins with an introduction to the concepts, architecture, and design of data warehouses, focusing on data modeling, ETL (Extraction-Transformation-Loading) processes, OLAP operations, and query optimization. It then moves towards exploring data mining techniques, including classification, clustering, association rule mining, prediction, and anomaly detection, supported by relevant algorithms and illustrative examples.  

Special emphasis is placed on the integration of data warehousing and data mining for business intelligence and analytics applications, demonstrating how they work together to provide strategic insights. In addition, emerging topics such as big data analytics, data preprocessing, and the role of machine learning in knowledge discovery are also highlighted.  

Key features of the book include:  

• Systematic treatment of basic to advanced concepts in data warehousing and data mining.  
• Real-world applications from business, healthcare, education, and e-commerce.  
• Emphasis on contemporary tools, platforms, and industry practices.  
• Balanced approach, making it suitable for beginners, advanced learners, and practitioners alike.  

This book is ideally suited for undergraduate and postgraduate students of computer science, information technology, and management, as well as professionals and researchers who seek a strong foundation in data warehousing and data mining concepts. It not only serves as a textbook for academic courses but also as a reference for implementing real-world projects in data-driven domains.
