    • In computing, the term data warehouse appliance (DWA) was coined by Foster Hinshaw[1] [2] for a computer architecture for data warehousing (DW) specifically marketed for big data analytics and discovery that is simple to use (not a pre-configuration) and high performance for this workload. A DWA includes an integrated set of servers, storage, operating system(s), and DBMS.

      In marketing, the term evolved to include pre-installed and pre-optimized hardware and software as well as similar software-only systems [3] promoted as easy to install on specific recommended hardware configurations or preconfigured as a complete system. [4] [5] These are marketing uses of the term and do not reflect the technical definition.

      A DWA is designed specifically for high performance big data analytics and is delivered as an easy-to-use packaged system.

      DW appliances are marketed for data volumes in the terabyte to petabyte range.
