2.0 out of 5 stars
A dissapointing hodgepodge of material, September 9, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Data Warehouse Performance (Paperback)
I purchased this book expecting that it would present a coherent methodology for initially sizing a data warehouse and for planning for subsequent growth. What I got out of reading this book is some scattered ideas about data warehouse performance, which though many are sound, needed to be put into some overall context. The authors attempt to put some of their thoughts together in a case study in the last chapter, but I found that chapter missed the mark also.
There is no doubt the writers know their subject. They just failed to organize their knowledge in a way that many firms implementing and maintaining data warehouses would highly value.
