Data Warehouse Architecture - A Blueprint for Success
Overview
"Engineering" a data warehouse is a lot like "engineering" a physical warehouse. Both involve a rigorous development cycle and require the right tools. Visible builds data warehouses from architectural models of enterprise infrastructure (policies, goals, measures, critical success factors, etc.).
Blueprints are also used to enlarge a building or make any significant modifications. Without a diagram of the infrastructure, such changes are quite difficult and very costly and can even be dangerous. It is the same with data warehouses. Visible first updates an enterprise's data warehouse architecture model so that it reflects changes (e.g., new performance measures, product lines, or services) and then modifies the data warehouse to support the changed enterprise.
