This presentation was given at OakTable World 2014 (#OTW14) in San Francisco. After many years of designing data warehouses and consulting on data warehouse architectures, I have seen a lot of bad design choices by supposedly experienced professional. A sense of professionalism, confidentiality agreements, and some sense of common decency have prevented me from calling people out on some of this. No more! In this session I will walk you through a typical bad design like many I have seen. I will show you what I see when I reverse engineer a supposedly complete design and walk through what is wrong with it and discuss options to correct it. This will be a test of your knowledge of data warehouse best practices by seeing if you can recognize these worst practices.
