| Prerequisite | Type | Confidence | Evidence level | Note | Sources |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cloud Computing & Distributed Systems (cloud_computing_distributed_systems) | enabling | 84% | primary_source | Managed cloud warehouses are explicitly cloud services; Redshift and Snowflake papers describe data-warehouse systems operated on cloud infrastructure with elastic managed capacity. |
|
| Relational Data Warehousing (relational_data_warehousing) | historical_predecessor | 82% | primary_source | Cloud data warehouses inherit the analytical SQL/data-warehouse lineage while changing the deployment model to managed elastic cloud services. |
