1. Cncepts and Fundamentals Curse Descriptin: Wrking n a business intelligence (BI) r data warehusing (DW) prject can be verwhelming if yu dn't have a slid grunding in the basics. It's difficult t fcus n the gals f the prject when yu're bgged dwn by unanswered questins - r dn't even knw what questins t ask. By arming yurself with knwledge f the cncepts and fundamentals, yu can hit the grund running. This curse prvides an verview that gives business and infrmatin technlgy prfessinals the cnfidence t dive right int their business intelligence and data warehusing activities and cntribute t their success. The curse begins by cvering the business drivers fr business intelligence and the technlgy drivers fr data warehusing, s yu'll have a cntext in which t understand hw the prject affects yur business. It then prvides an verview f the uses and users f business intelligence, alng with the type f applicatins and tls that may be deplyed. Next is an intrductin t data integratin and data warehusing, identifying what lies at heart f successful business intelligence implementatins. Because business value is nt derived by merely selecting the right tls, this curse will als examine the staffing and planning, as well as best-practice appraches and structures fr design, develpment and implementatin. We use practical examples t illustrate technical theries, cncepts and techniques, as well as the functins and tasks needed fr successful prjects. We'll describe, at a high level, hw t develp a business intelligence applicatin and its supprting data warehuse, alng with an rganizatin structure yu culd use. We'll talk abut the varius rles and respnsibilities, as well as the assciated skills that are needed. We'll identify critical success factrs f a prject, and cver a checklist f data warehusing cnsideratins. It's imprtant t understand deliverables that may be prduced thrughut these prjects and discuss the reasns fr prducing them. We'll talk abut the best practices fr getting the right deliverables fr yur users.

Data Warehuse Architecture and Data Mdeling Curse Descriptin: A lt can g wrng when a data warehuse is built withut a slid architecture. Fr example, the data reprted frm an rganizatin's warehuse may nt be integrated acrss the rganizatin, s business users get cnfusing and cnflicting results. And that s just the beginning. It's critical that a data warehuse supprt and reinfrce the bjectives f the entire enterprise, nt just a single grup. 768 Purbachal Rad, Kalikapur, Klkata - 700078, West Bengal, India.

Sectin 6: DIF Standards Prject management Sftware develpment Technlgy and prducts Architecture Data BI and Data Warehuse Prject Management Curse Descriptin: Prject management is especially critical fr a data warehuse prject. Withut gd management, prjects are prne t being shrt n required resurces. They are late, ver budget, lw quality and, mst imprtantly, they dn t meet expectatins. The data warehuse prject manager must embrace new tasks and deliverables, develp a different wrking relatinship with the users, and wrk in an envirnment that is far less defined than with traditinal peratinal systems. The prject management curse helps managers develp the skills they need t usher their prjects thrugh all phases f planning and implementatin.
