Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Data Warehousing Woes
Hi, well as our previous senior database dude has left
the company and this has left basically just me to
fend for the company's present db woes. Here's the
scoop: We're going to soon be moving all of our logs
and legacy databases into one massive Oracle database.
Seems to me like a real classic data warehousing /
reporting project.
The problem? I'm probably between junior and intermediate level. There are (guessing here) 20 Gigs of data with many more gigs in the future. Now, I really enjoy working with Oracle and I would love to learn this but I know this is a bit over my head.
So my questions are:
1) Where the heck do I start to learn about data
warehousing? Books, 3rd party tools, etc.
2) (serious question) How hard do I push for the
company to go out and pay $1 billion for a couple of
data warehouse consultants to at least help us with
the design and architectural analysis?
Thanks guys,
MJ.
