Migrating To The Data Warehouse Model
The data warehouse is a subject-oriented, integrated, time-variant, and non-volatile collection of data to support strategic decisions. Its design, inherent in the data model, must reflect each of these characteristics. This presentation describes an eight-step process for transforming the business data model into the data warehouse data model. This process considers both the business and technical implications of the design and provides a stable model that can evolve as the business and data warehouse applications evolve.
The techniques covered by the presentations are also described in a recently published book - "Mastering Data Warehouse Design" - co-authored by the presenter, Claudia Imhoff, and Nicholas Galemmo.
