Information Based Design - Next Gen Data Warehouses

Recently, in my webinar done jointly with expressor, I was asked a question: "Is the best practice for deploying warehouses a "single, enterprise wide warehouse" or a warehouse with different data marts for each line of business?" My answer was "it depends on the client". Very simply said. As I was talking to a colleague of mine, we knew the answer wasn't that simple and we decided to write a whitepaper about it. So here we are, with a brand new, hot off the press (or Adobe for that matter), FREE whitepaper on "Information Based Design - Next Generation Data Warehouses for Healthcare providers". Here is an excerpt from the whitepaper:

"Very large companies can afford big investments and long lead times to build out new enterprise data warehouse environments. These can be several year projects that cost tens of millions of dollars, or more. Success (based on full achievement of the initial vision) is far from guaranteed. Not uncommonly, after several years, planning for the “next generation” data warehouse begins to take root and the process begins anew… Meta Analytix and End to End solutions present a white paper on Information Based, Incremental, Data Warehouse design for those organizations with limited time and budgets."
