Thanks, Andy!

This is a topic that has come to the forefront for me lately, specifically, we have an operational database, and we want to get to the point of being able to use cubes. The missing piece for us is a data warehouse.

I already have a degree of familiarity with development methodologies, SQL Server BI stack, our institutional culture with regard to data, etc. I really like your approach, and look forward to the rest of this series.

I am specifically interested on any tips for getting our operational data into the needed fact/dimension format.

Thanks!

Dan
