Online Housing Network Enjoys Benefits With Move From Teradata to Microsoft SQL Server

Overview Homestore Web sites provide a national trove of real estate and apartment listings and other housing-related information for more than 9 million unique visitors a month. Believed to be the largest such operation on the Web, the company generates more than U.S.$200 million in annual revenue. To enhance the customer experience, the company created a data warehouse to analyze how its users explore its sites. Initially deployed on a Teradata system, Homestore migrated to a new data warehouse hosted on Microsoft SQL Server. SQL Server Analysis Services is used for creating multidimensional data cubes, and reporting is done using SQL Server Reporting Services.
