Synopsis

Designed as a basic textbook, with the requisite true-and-false questions, chapter summary, and review exercises at the conclusion of each chapter, Ponniah's work will appeal to IT professionals who already design, implement, or maintain data warehousing systems as well as novices to the subject. The basic elements of data warehousing are described before Ponniah turns to topics of project management, defining business requirements, the architecture and infrastructure, the role of metadata, implementation, growth, and maintenance. Ponniah first developed this course at a community college in North Branch, New Jersey.

March 22, 2004: The author tends to make a single point using a million words. It is frustrating to read this book because you feel the need to filter out all of the inefficient rhetoric in order to acquire any knowledge relating to the subject. The graphics are more than disappointing and, instead of providing clarity, create more confusion and seem to have been thrown together in a few seconds. On top of all this, there are so many typos and grammatical errors in this book, I wonder if anyone proofread the book at all. For myself, a person new to data warehousing, I found some information that is useful for future projects; I only wish that I did not have to develop a headache to learn this new skill.
