Data Warehouse Documentation Roadmap
All projects need documentation and many companies provide templates as part of a methodology. This document describes the templates, tools and source documents used by Data Management & Warehousing. It serves two purposes:

* For projects using other methodologies or creating their own set of documents to use as a checklist. This allows the project to ensure that the documentation covers the essential areas for describing the data warehouse.
* To demonstrate our approach to our clients by describing the templates and deliverables that are produced.
Updated:
Data Warehouse Governance
An organisation that is embarking on a data warehousing project is undertaking a long-term development and maintenance programme of a computer system. This system will be critical to the organisation and cost a significant amount of money, therefore control of the system is vital. Governance defines the model the organisation will use to ensure optimal use and re-use of the data warehouse and enforcement of corporate policies (e.g. business design, technical design, and application security) and ultimately derive value for money.

Collaborative Analytics
This paper looks at the disconnect between business analysts and IT, examines the source of this division and introduces the adaptive information cycle, a model that links the center-out approach of traditional data warehousing to edge-based, emergent prototyping that characterizes today's analytic environment. By combining concepts from integrated development environments, social networking and collaboraative working, the adaptive information cycle reunites business intelligence and business analytics.

Analytic Databases in the World of the Data Warehouse
The majority of companies have implemented their business intelligence (BI) environments according to a physically layered data warehouse architecture and based on traditional general-purpose relational databases. This paper argues that analytical databases may enable a move to a simpler non-layered architecture with significant benefits in terms of lower costs of implementation, maintenance and use.
