## Oracle Argus Mart Overview

The AM is a data source software product that can be used for analysis and reporting in medical product safety and pharmacovigilance. The primary data for AM are the adverse event cases managed by the Oracle Argus Safety application. The AM product consists of:

- A pre-defined AM data model containing Signal and Reporting tables

- Pre-built ODI based interfaces that are linked to Oracle PL/SQL based packages

The Argus Safety application serves as the primary source of data for AM. The Oracle PL/SQL based packages that are linked to ODI interfaces extract the data from the Argus Safety database, transform and load the data into the AM. Once the data has been loaded to the AM data mart, it is available for the Argus Mart users for querying and reporting activities.
