My fine and learned colleague Alan Duncan presents a good summary of the data warehouse and business analytics “reboot” on the Information Action blog:

The key takeaway for me is a concept Alan and I are passionate about. The idea that you shouldn't manage your data warehouse as such, you should instead unbundle the data warehouse (and any supporting capabilities) into a set of information services.

Thus, it is these information services that you manage, not the technology components of the data warehouse itself.

Meanwhile, I've started getting syndicated on the SMS blog along with Alan: http://www.smsmt.com/Social/Blog/Matthew-De-George
