The data warehouse has recently become a topic of many IT people. After ERP, after CRM, I suddenly came out to a BI, saying that BI can't not mention DW (data warehouse). Nowadays, the books in the bookstore are not a lot, some are more old, and the author is here to list the impression of some data warehouse books for the reader. Subjective impression is more important, please advise with inappropriate places.
Of course, there is a point to explain that for the data warehouse, the book is not used, only the book is useless, and more often rely on project experience.

Parent Bill Immon of the database.
The publisher claims that this is a "recognized" Bible "authority of the Data Warehouse", and the author thinks this is slightly exaggerated. This book is in technology depth or limited, in theory, more practical. This is not a big and full book. After all, this is just the first of the data warehouse series published by John Wiley & Sons. It is worthy of that the author is authoritatively description of some of the characteristics of the data warehouse. The basic concepts, basic principles, and the process of establishing DW are also appreciated by the book.
In the translation, after all, there is a second version of the translation basis. The error is still less, it is too much translator, there is no very good grasp of the translation style for the whole book.
By the way, this book is more beautiful, read and pleasing.
This book is indeed called classic. Suitable for reading objects: Database Getting Started Novice

Rating: Five Stars
Ralph Kimball is an expert in the data warehouse field and its name in Bill Immon. This book is its work. As the title of the book name, the dimension model has been carried out, and the application of different application areas is introduced. If someone asks: what is a data warehouse, you can tell him to the "Data Warehouse" book to find the answer. If someone asks the specific application of the dimension, then you can tell him to read this book. The Data Warehouse Toolkit gives the most authoritative answer on this topic.
On the Internet, you can see the English electronic version of this book (yourself is also a hate late). There is currently no Chinese translation version. It is said that the Electronic Industry Press is preparing to publish, wait and see!

I have a local impression of this book: Project Manager How to Recruit Project Members. I can't think of such interesting chapters in the seemingly used book. This book is introduced in the DW project management. Another part is for Oracle database technology. It is not easy to say, materialized view, bitmap index these data warehouses have a good description in the book. Of course, the technical content extends only to Oracle 8i. For Oracle 9i to strengthen readers in DW, there is another additional information. Suitable for reading objects: Preparing to build a data warehouse with Oracle solutions.

Oracle 9i Data Warehouse Construction Technology
Author: Fei Sike Technology R & D Center
Book number: 7-5053-8117-2
Page: 432
Publishing House: Electronic Industry Press
Rating: Eldest
This is a scared man from the name, but it is found that most of them are a description of the How to class. There is almost no such thing as data warehouse methodology. It is basically a place to describe the characteristics of Oracle 9i for data warehouses. It is not very deeply discussed. It can be seen that this product R & D center has not done a data warehouse project at all.
This book is relatively low pricing, and maybe attractive to some readers.
Suitable for reading objects: still don't say it ...

Data warehouse management

Rating: four stars
W.H.INMON is the first author. This book is published or earlier. Not much now. Some big bookstores should be found. I don't know how to translate the title "Data Warehouse Performance" into "Data Warehouse Management". As the English version is, this book is written for data warehouse performance. The content is basically standing on a relatively high angle, and there is not much to specific technical details (this seems to be a common problem of W.H.inmon book).
Suitable for reading objects: technical manager, technical architect

Title: Data Warehouse Project Management

Publishing House: Tsinghua University Press
Rating: four stars
Most of the other books must focus on the theory. The focus of this book is that experience - the author is a technical expert with experience in data warehouse projects. This book reads seems that coherence is not very strong, but many of the authors have given the authors, and these are especially important from the actual project. The first author SID ADELMAN hosted the "Ask the Experts" section of www.dmreview.com, very popular. There are several other authors on this column.
The "warning" behind each chapter reminds the reader to pay attention to the possible problems.
This book is a book in the "Translation of Software Management and Software Engineering", and the author is also a great expectation, but it seems that it seems to feel a bit name, probably the content of the Ask The Experts. The chapter I feel like I have met.
Translation is OK, books are still more beautiful.

College works. Textbooks in American universities.
The original version of the English is the original. The content seems to be some old. The scope is relatively wide. One big brick, readers must be patient.
The basic concepts, construction methods, technical details of the data warehouse are involved.
There is a good reference book if the paper in the school students is a good reference.

Publication Date: 2001-2-1
Rating: Samsung
This and "Enterprise Data Warehouse Planning and Implementation" and "Object-Oriented Data Warehouse Design" are all series, all of which are published in People's Posts and Telecommunications. In this book, it is recommended "Object-Oriented Data Warehouse Design". This book discusses a lot of specific details, which also has a description of the implementation process. It is a DW reference book that is still available.
The content of this series is available. The existing problem is that Chinese translation is relatively poor, and the translator's XX studio has a workshop. In addition, it is also slightly rough.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------
In addition, there are several Chinese books, limited to space, and do not evaluate. There is almost no books for different manufacturers specializing tools.
