Editorial Review	The book is primarily aimed at designers and information managers in the field of data warehouse applications. This target group receives advice and instructions for action in order to optimally meet their requirements. In doing so, it is important to emphasize the holistic approach, which can support an evolutionary development better than single-speed rapidity. The underlying architectural character also contributes to the consolidation of this intension. The issues of data mining and parallel processing are addressed too briefly; There is also a lack of further literature references. In particular, SMP and MPP offer important support for the practical implementation. However, to improve performance, the ability of some DBMS queries to optimize and process in parallel is useful. IT-Director 10/2000

Ralph has his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University. Margy Ross is President of the Kimball Group. She has focused exclusively on DW/BI since 1982 with an emphasis on business requirements analysis and dimensional modeling.
