5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, December 31, 1997

By A Customer

This is an outstanding book for Oracle Data Warehousing. I have a very large data warehouse, and I found this book to have suggestions that dramatically improved my performance. The writing style is very clear, and the book has insights that I was unable to find anywhere else. Overall, an outstanding book.

By	Jim Jacobs (Omaha, Nebraska) - See all my reviews

The best part of this book was the amount of time that was spent with PRACTICAL data warehouse techniques. I throughly enjoyed reading this book, and I found it extremely useful in planning and implementing my Data Warehouse. I have all of the Oracle Warehouse books, and this is the one that I refer to most often.
