CHALLENGES
OF TRADITIONAL DATA WAREHOUSE SOLUTIONS
New Year’s Resolutions for 2014?
2013’s old problems have just become 2014’s new problems:
• Some important data is just not available
• Progress on the IT roadmap is slow
• Interfaces have to be manually programmed
• Most reports are clumsy and slow
• There are too few users who can understand and use the data model
• Ad hoc reports are either not accessible at all, or only very slowly
• Business Intelligence is months (years?) behind the business
• Despite lots of plans, often no unified numerical or KPI view in most enterprises

THE CHALLENGE:
NO OVERVIEW AND NO CONTROL OF THE DATA
1) More and more diverse
systems and data formats
2) Increasingly, numerous
good front ends in the market
Excel
Web/ SQL

TRADITIONAL DATA WAREHOUSE PROJECTS
Manually setting up the data warehouse often takes very long in practice
and is very expensive and prone to error.
The classic solution...
…is a manual DWH
…but the setup is:
- complex
- time-consuming
- very expensive
- inflexible
- and expensive when in
productive operation
