Implementing Enterprise Data Warehousing : 9781430310631 : 24 Aug 2007 : Designing complex analytical data structures is difficult enough, but to do it for an entire enterprise becomes a real challenge. This little primer provides a simple method of preparing your people for the complexity of this endeavor. This is just like opening a new restaurant where certain components have to be designed and thought out before you start to build the kitchen. You do not have to be an "expert" to build a data warehouse. A lot can be outsourced, but you do need to be able to create your own plan according to your culture's specific requirements. Some cultures take more 'informing' and 'training' than others. The pace and aggressiveness with which you unfold your plan is something that you understand best. This primer defines the data warehouse components and helps you decide when they can be done, in what order, and by how many people.
