This course sorts out the confusion about data warehousing architectures and methodologies. Many data management architectures (hub versus bus) can be used to successfully deploy business intelligence, and many approaches (top-down versus bottom-up) may be used to develop the data warehouse. Choosing the right architecture and development approach for your organization is a challenge influenced by many factors. This course provides guidelines and techniques to assess your requirements and make informed choices.
