    Building a Data Warehouse Part II: Building a new schema

    [repost from Stephen Forte's Blog] In Part I: When to build your data warehouse we looked at when you should build your data warehouse and concluded that you should build it sooner rather than later to take advantage of reporting and view optimization. Today we will look at your options to build your data warehouse schema. When architecting a data warehouse, you have two basic options: build a flat “reporting” table for each operation you are performing, or build with BI/cubes in mind and implement a “star” or “snowflake” schema.

    Using LinqPad with Telerik OpenAccess ORM

    LinqPad is a nice and popular query analyzer made to test LINQ queries: whether it is Linq To Sql, Linq to Objects or some other flavor, you will be able to play in a nice way with it. Sadly it does not support Telerik OpenAccess ORM out of the box. However we never said it is impossible – you just have to put some more pressure to it. So, the first step is of course to deploy Telerik OpenAccess ORM and LinqPad on your machine. Then do the following: a) Open LinqPad and press F4 to bring up the Advanced Query...
