Good introduction on the subject. Covers all aspects.
The book provides a good and almost impartial overview and introduction on the subject covering almost everything that has to be said about DataWarehousing. It is well organised, easy and fun to read. It definitely gave me a good understanding on a subject that I had no prior knownledge. I recommended it.

Another hollow text
This text is a waste of time and dollars. I really could not even suggest who the target audience might be. The book is just a haphazard collection of ideas with no in-depth content all presented in the most confusing manner possible. For anyone looking for some solid advice on Data Warehousing look elsewhere. Even the Oracle side of this Oracle Press book is weak.

It is well organised, easy and fun to read. It definitely gave me a good understanding on a subject that I had no prior knownledge. I recommended it.However I have a few comments which do not alter the value of the book : a) I would like to see a short introduction , no more that ten pages , which explains the subject and it's relation to the Oracle Tools. It took me quit a few pages of reading to discover it. b) I would like to see more details on the Star Schema since it is a central concept. Moreover I would like to see a few real life examples of models implementing the star schema. c) I would like to see more on the Oracle Express Solution and especially the Express Server (it's architecture etc.)and posibly a few examples. |
