Updated new edition of Ralph Kimball's groundbreaking book on
dimensional modeling for data warehousing and business
intelligence
The first edition of Ralph Kimball's "The Data Warehouse
Toolkit" introduced the industry to dimensional modeling, and now
his books are considered the most authoritative guides in this
space. This new third edition is a complete library of updated
dimensional modeling techniques, the most comprehensive collection
ever. It covers new and enhanced star schema dimensional modeling
patterns, adds two new chapters on ETL techniques, includes new and
expanded business matrices for 12 case studies, and more.Authored
by Ralph Kimball and Margy Ross, known worldwide as educators,
consultants, and influential thought leaders in data warehousing
and business intelligenceBegins with fundamental design
recommendations and progresses through increasingly complex
scenariosPresents unique modeling techniques for business
applications such as inventory management, procurement, invoicing,
accounting, customer relationship management, big data analytics,
and moreDraws real-world case studies from a variety of industries,
including retail sales, financial services, telecommunications,
education, health care, insurance, e-commerce, and more
Design dimensional databases that are easy to understand and
provide fast query response with "The Data Warehouse Toolkit: The
Definitive Guide to Dimensional Modeling, 3rd Edition."
A thorough update to the industry standard for designing,
developing, and deploying data warehouse and business intelligence
systems The world of data warehousing has changed remarkably since
the first edition of The Data Warehouse Lifecycle Toolkit was
published in 1998. In that time, the data warehouse industry has
reached full maturity and acceptance, hardware and software have
made staggering advances, and the techniques promoted in the
premiere edition of this book have been adopted by nearly all data
warehouse vendors and practitioners. In addition, the term
"business intelligence" emerged to reflect the mission of the data
warehouse: wrangling the data out of source systems, cleaning it,
and delivering it to add value to the business. Ralph Kimball and
his colleagues have refined the original set of Lifecycle methods
and techniques based on their consulting and training experience.
The authors understand first-hand that a data warehousing/business
intelligence (DW/BI) system needs to change as fast as its
surrounding organization evolves. To that end, they walk you
through the detailed steps of designing, developing, and deploying
a DW/BI system. You'll learn to create adaptable systems that
deliver data and analyses to business users so they can make better
business decisions. With substantial new and updated content, this
second edition of The Data Warehouse Lifecycle Toolkit again sets
the standard in data warehousing for the next decade. It shows you
how to: Identify and prioritize data warehouse opportunities Create
an architecture plan and select products Design a powerful,
flexible, dimensional model Build a robust ETL system Develop BI
applications to deliver data to business users Deploy and sustain a
healthy DW/BI environment The authors are members of the Kimball
Group. Each has focused on data warehousing and business
intelligence consulting and education for more than 15 years; most
have written other books in the Toolkit series. Learn more about

Three books by the bestselling authors on Data Warehousing The
most authoritative guides from the inventor of the technique all
for a value price.
The Data Warehouse Toolkit, 3rd Edition (9781118530801) Ralph
Kimball invented a data warehousing technique called "dimensional
modeling" and popularized it in his first Wiley book, The Data
Warehouse Toolkit. Since this book was first published in 1996,
dimensional modeling has become the most widely accepted technique
for data warehouse design. Over the past 10 years, Kimball has
improved on his earlier techniques and created many new ones. In
this 3rd edition, he will provide a comprehensive collection of all
of these techniques, from basic to advanced.
The Data Warehouse Lifecycle Toolkit, 2nd Edition
(9780470149775) Complete coverage of best practices from data
warehouse project inception through on-going program management.
Updates industry best practices to be in sync with current
recommendations of Kimball Group. Streamlines the lifecycle
methodology to be more efficient and user-friendly
The Data Warehouse ETL Toolkit (9780764567575) shows data
warehouse developers how to effectively manage the ETL (Extract,
Transform, Load) phase of the data warehouse development lifecycle.
The authors show developers the best methods for extracting data
from scattered sources throughout the enterprise, removing
obsolete, redundant, and innaccurate data, transforming the
remaining data into correctly formatted data structures, and then
physically loading them into the data warehouse. This book provides
complete coverage of proven, time-saving ETL techniques. It begins
with a quick overview of ETL fundamentals and the role of the ETL
development team. It then quickly moves into an overview of the ETL
data structures, both relational and dimensional. The authors show
how to build useful dimensional stuctures, providing practical
examples of beginning through advanced techniques.
The final edition of the incomparable data warehousing and business
intelligence reference, updated and expanded The Kimball Group
Reader, Remastered Collection is the essential reference for data
warehouse and business intelligence design, packed with best
practices, design tips, and valuable insight from industry pioneer
Ralph Kimball and the Kimball Group. This Remastered Collection
represents decades of expert advice and mentoring in data
warehousing and business intelligence, and is the final work to be
published by the Kimball Group. Organized for quick navigation and
easy reference, this book contains nearly 20 years of experience on
more than 300 topics, all fully up-to-date and expanded with 65 new
articles. The discussion covers the complete data
warehouse/business intelligence lifecycle, including project
planning, requirements gathering, system architecture, dimensional
modeling, ETL, and business intelligence analytics, with each group
of articles prefaced by original commentaries explaining their role
in the overall Kimball Group methodology. Data warehousing/business
intelligence industry's current multi-billion dollar value is due
in no small part to the contributions of Ralph Kimball and the
Kimball Group. Their publications are the standards on which the
industry is built, and nearly all data warehouse hardware and
software vendors have adopted their methods in one form or another.
This book is a compendium of Kimball Group expertise, and an
essential reference for anyone in the field. * Learn data
warehousing and business intelligence from the field's pioneers *
