Full definition
A healthcare data warehouse aggregates data from disparate sources for analytics. Sources: EHR (clinical notes, orders, results), claims (utilisation, cost), scheduling (appointment patterns), billing (revenue, A/R), patient experience (CSAT, NPS, CAHPS), wearables, lab + imaging, social determinants.
Modern healthcare data warehouses use cloud-native architectures: Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, Synapse. Storage typically separate from compute; data ingested via standard pipelines; modeled in star or wide-table schemas; queried by analysts via SQL + BI tools (Tableau, Power BI, Looker, Mode).
AI/ML training increasingly happens on the data warehouse — feature engineering, model training, evaluation, deployment. Modern stacks include feature stores (Feast, Tecton) for production feature management.
For MOVO-X enterprise tier: data warehouse export via standard tools — customers ingest MOVO-X data into their own data warehouse for cross-system analytics. Optional managed analytics layer for customers without internal data-team capacity.

Frequently asked
Does MOVO-X include a data warehouse?+
Enterprise tier offers a data warehouse export plus optional managed analytics. Customers can also ingest MOVO-X data into their own warehouse via standard pipelines.
FHIR-based warehousing?+
Bulk data export via Flat FHIR (NDJSON-based) supported. Modern healthcare warehouses ingest FHIR-formatted data natively.
