Great book - but a bit outdated

This book introduces us into the IBM view on data warehousing. It gives the reader an architectural overview on data warehousing. Moreover, it gives ample insight into project management of a data warehouse project. Amongst the subjects, one gets an idea on the roles within a project and how long a data warehouse project might take. Fortunately, this book is NOT a sales leaflet; instead it gives a balanced overview. Often real life situations are sketched to stress a certain point. The authors clearly know how data warehousing is undertaken in real life. The authors also show the IBM toolset. As this set is recently renewed (after the writing of the book) this part is somewhat outdated.
