Thanks - amazon already tried to sell me this The Data Warehouse Toolkit: The Definitive Guide to Dimensional Modeling which I&#x27;d probably go for. I&#x27;m guessing the content would be similar but more database agnostic which suits my preferences.<p>I feel comfortable doing the reporting and scripting but it would be good to validate my ideas for the designs when I get some hands on experience - hopefully soon!<p>Maybe a new question but I wonder if the data warehouse has been superseded a little by the whole big data &#x2F; multiple data sources thing?
