The Main Feature for Successful Implementation a Data Warehouse

Data warehousing is the leading and most reliable technology used today by companies for planning, forecasting, and management A lot has been done in this field regarding design and development of data warehouses and a lot still needs to be done but one area which needs special attention from research community is data warehouse maintenance. A major reason for data warehouse project failures is poor management. Without proper management desired results are nearly impossible to attain from a data warehouse. Unlike operational systems data warehouses need a lot more management and a support team of qualified professionals is needed to take care of the issues that arise after its deployment including data extraction, data loading, network management, training and communication, materialized view and some other related tasks. The subject of my research is to explore the impact of the selected factors, under organizational, project-related and environmental dimensions, on data warehouse applications.
