The Message Driven Warehouse: A New Architectural Model for BI Systems

by Ken Collier, Dan O'Leary

In this Executive Report, Ken Collier and Dan O'Leary introduce an enhanced data warehousing architecture designed to enable developers to respond quickly to new requirements and to adapt easily to change. The Message Driven Warehouse uses a generalized Java Message Service format to push rather than pull source data into a domain-independent, adaptive data model in the warehouse. Warehouse component implementation is highly generalized and adaptive, while domain specifics, business logic, data handling rules, and other variant elements are retained as metadata. This architecture blends well with either Inmon or Kimball presentation architectures.
