Abstract
Traditional database management systems provide excellent support for data storage and online transaction processing, but very little support for in-depth data analysis. The key missing element is technology that permits analysts to evolve a series of concepts that relate their hypotheses to computer accessible data. This can be provided by deductive database technology. In this chapter, we present IDEA, a data exploration and analysis tool which utilizes deductive database technology interfaced directly to commercial relational database management systems, providing the necessary technology to support advanced data analysis without requiring that organizations forsake their investment in relational databases.
