As part of the TDWI Webinars, here is a chance to here a very interesting presentation from Jonathan Geiger. Oracle sponsors the webinar, so you will see an additional part on Warehouse Builder data quality, but in general I think the content is very interesting. It is all about how you deal with quality improvements and what tools can help.
Here is the detailed information on it:
Webinar Abstract
The data warehouse team is expected to deliver quality data but is
often faced with sources that have quality deficiencies. This Webinar
looks at ways to gradually improve data quality issues at the source,
including data profiling, data transformation and cleansing, audits and
controls, and metadata, all of which work together to provide quality
data to the data warehouse users.
You will learn:
- Ways to define data quality
- The continuous improvement process steps
- How to provide quality data in the data warehouse
