Data Warehousing

Another book, which aims to provide a guide to an Oracle 8i/91 data warehouse gives a comprehensive discussion of such a facility. The author considers Datawarehousing and Star Schemas and describes what he calls “proven techniques for designing constructing, tuning and maintaining these in a real production environment. The publishers believe that the book provides an excellent guide to maximising the performance, flexibility, and manageability of an Oracle 8i/91 datawarehouse. The range of the text is such that it covers important topics such as: developing hardware and software architectures, the design of a star schema, loading data, query optimisation, partitioning and also administration. They also offer further information about the guide at the Web site: www.phptr.com
