From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. A data mart is the access layer of the data warehouse environment that is used to get data out to the users. The data mart is a subset of the data warehouse and is usually oriented to a specific business line or team. Whereas data warehouses have an enterprise-wide depth, the information in data marts pertains to a single department.
Most species of slugs are generalists, feeding on a broad spectrum of organic materials, including leaves from living plants, lichens, mushrooms, and even carrion. Some slugs are predators and eat other slugs and snails, or earthworms.
Both slugs and snails are gastropods and belong to phylum Mollusca. Both have soft bodies with a muscular foot. Both slugs and snails are similar in many respects but with only a few differences. One of the noticeable differences is that snails have a shell on their backs whereas slugs do not have shells. The shell is coiled and about one to one and one-half inches long. Both slugs and snails have either a dark green, tan, light gray, or black body. Some of the varieties have patterns or spots on their bodies.
