From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   data mart
  
      A type of {data warehouse} designed primarily to
      address a specific function or department's needs, as opposed
      to a data warehouse which is traditionally meant to address
      the needs of the organisation from an enterprise perspective.
      In addition, a data mart often uses {aggregation} or
      summarisation of the data to enhance query performance.
      However, it is important to maintain the ability to access the
      underlying base data to enable {drill-down analysis} as
      necessary.
