Explanation

OLTP (Online Transaction Processing) systems are designed for transactional operations like order entry, inventory updates, and financial transactions. These systems require high data integrity and fast performance for individual transactions, which is achieved through database normalization. Normalized schemas minimize redundancy and ensure ACID properties, making OLTP systems typically 3NF normalized. In contrast, OLAP systems for analytics use denormalized schemas.
