Synopsis
Most data warehouse projects fail -- and the #1 cause is a failure to implement the right data models. In this book, leading data warehouse expert William Giovanazzo details a proven software engineering methodology and world-class techniques for data modeling in any decision support environment. Unlike other books, Object-Oriented Data Warehouse Design: Building a Star Schema recognizes that "one size doesn't fit all" in data warehouse design -- and introduces a methodology that can easily be applied to any organization's realities. Readers will develop a star schema data model from start to finish, addressing key issues such as granularity and precision; dimensions; hierarchies, and sizing. Every step is introduced with theory and supported with a live case study example. The book includes methodology checklists, chapter review questions, glossaries, bibliographies, and more. For data warehouse designers and developers, and for DBAs and system engineers in companies developing a data warehouse.

    Thank you so much for offering this art book. Your price was fabulous on it. I had no communication, but you are no doubt a kind person. You are also a professional person, and your attention to detail really helped me in making my purchase decision. I'm adding you to my favorite seller list, and I always do shop with this list first. And also, I'd like to thank you for the lovely packaging, and the extremely fast shipping. The book was exactly as you described it. Happy New Year, if I can say.

    I had a problem after placing my order. I contacted the seller who responded within an hour and resolved the issue with no hassle. This book was a fair price and received today. I failed to notice, but the description did indicate it was missing the dust jacket. I highly recommend this seller.
