Each page listed below represents a typical data warehouse phase, and has several sections:
Task Description: This section describes what typically needs to be accomplished during this particular data warehouse phase.
Time Requirement: A rough estimate of the amount of time this particular data warehouse task takes.
Deliverables: Typically at the end of each data warehouse task, one or more documents are produced that fully describe the steps and results of that particular task. This is especially important for consultants to communicate their results to the clients.
Possible Pitfalls: Things to watch out for. Some of them obvious, some of them not so obvious. However, all of them are real.
