I don't have any concrete ideas, but I do know that the standard name 
for the software for these things is "Data Warehouse" (or at least 
that's one common name). I think it's a silly and nonobvious name, which 
is why I mention it here.

I also believe they are usually a real pain in the neck, from the way 
I've heard people talk about them.
