WHITE PAPER:
Many organizations have reconsidered their commitments to data modeling in the face of NoSQL and big data systems, as well as XML information management. However, should you really be shifting focus away from data modeling?
WHITE PAPER:
The construction of a data model is one of the more difficult tasks of software engineering and is often pivotal to the success or failure of a project.

WHITE PAPER:
In this white paper, you will learn intelligent data modeling practices to design and deliver superior business intelligence (BI) faster, the characteristics and benefits of intelligent data modeling and how to promote the use of data models to fast-track data warehouse and BI projects.
WHITE PAPER:
At the core of any BI should be the ability to align business needs with the data infrastructure supporting them. This is almost impossible to do without a data model. Yet many BI implementers do not understand the need for these design components. This paper will examine the major benefits that data models have on BI environments.
WHITE PAPER:
In the following paper, we briefly describe, and illustrate from examples, what we believe are the “Top 10” mistakes of data mining, in terms of frequency and seriousness. Most are basic, though a few are subtle. All have, when undetected, left analysts worse off than if they’d never looked at their data.
WHITE PAPER:
Often times Business Intelligence (BI) projects miss the mark with their business users because the proper documenting of required data and related business rules is not executed. This paper looks at fast-tracking data warehousing and BI projects using data modeling.
