 Things to look out for “Lesson Learned”

In-House customisation “No” “No”

No SQL ….Time lost when a rebuild is require.
Always use multiple vendors solutions increasing the clients you
need to service.
What ever you Use, needs to be Software agnostics, flexible and
configurable “not customised". Off the self is best…………..for
future upgrades.
Ultimately the Design and Development of and EDW/ BIMDW
needs to keep the Future in Mind.
Maintain a federated approach , (like google)
Design to support the integrations of Multiple Data sources
Design using ETL functionality.(Extract Transmit & Load) Standard
process.

 Items that may Help

Question you need to ask yourself?

What are you trying to accomplish and why?
To make this happen, what do you need to do and when do you
need to do it?
How can you accomplish only what your design needs you to do?
The process needs to be simple and repeatable by others to be
successful. ?
Who on your team will be responsible for doing what tasks
Always Design your system ,Make sure you have the “End in mind”
future-proof your solution

 Items that may Help
What is a Class Library Definition .

A class library is a collection of prewritten classes or coded templates or

Rules that may be used to develop and application.
Typically use in engineering to control standards for the Digital reuse on
project, Operations, and Maintenance.

Custodians need to take responsibility for the Class Library, Standard

and processes.
Use a unstructured Database with a class Library….will save you time
Alignment of Digital and Physical assets.
Concurrent Handover using SaaS. Always keep the End in mind….
