Peer comment(s):

agree Deborah Shannon : Certainly would (or searchable maybe?). In this context "eine Recherche" is "a search". The type of queries and the option to read/save results offline make no difference to the translation I wouldn't think.

neutral Rowan Morrell : That's very true, but "Recherche" is a bit of a false friend - it means investigation or enquiry, whereas Forschung is usually used for research.

In der Praxis kann (nicht muß) das ein Data Warehouse / Data Mart sein.
