Synopsis:

The classic or traditional data warehouse is a crucial part of the data analytics supported decision making infrastructure in many organizations. The classic data warehouse is still a key tool in generating actionable insights into an organization’s performance. This talk will detail the rationale for having a data warehouse system distinct from other OLTP based operational systems in the organization, provide insights into dimensional modeling, and conclude with some recent developments in the area.
