Semantic Technology for the Data Warehousing Practitioner -- Shattering Traditional DW/BI Best Practices to Drive Intelligent Analytics
Current DW/BI best practices optimize technologies that were conceived two to three decades ago. To successfully leverage semantic technology, DW/BI professionals will change (even reverse) many of these practices.
Many organizations use data warehousing and business intelligence to monitor their operations and guide tactical and strategic decision making. Data warehouses continue to have challenges in: - keeping the data organized in sync with the organization's analytics needs, - delivering data to decision makers in a timely manner, - managing constantly-evolving data quality requirements, - integrating new data sets into the data warehouse, - reusing expert knowledge that is embedded in end-user analytics, and - organizing internal data assets, data from cloud applications, and data from business partners into a common access method.
Many of today's DW/BI practices were developed to optimize technologies that were conceived in the 1970's, 80's, and 90's. This presentation examines key features of semantic technology and how DW/BI practices are likely to change to successfully deliver intelligent DW/BI projects.
