1) Data warehouse is a collection of datamarts. Where data marts contains the data about the single module. The data of all the datamarts(all the modules data) is data warehousing.

2) By an ETL transformations we can consolidate the customer information in data warehouse from three backend PLTP applications or flat files or any database files.

3) Metadata is data about the data...i.e., Metadata is about controlling the quality of data entering the data stream.
