Data mining is the concept of extracting relationships and patterns from the data of operational systems.
The main advantage is we can predict the relationship/Patterns.
This is a fast-growing technology. In the market many tools are available. Each has its own merits and demerits. Basically, you need data warehousing knowledge to get further into mining:
