Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data WarehouseFederico Razzoli
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.

During Identiverse 2024 and EIC 2024, members of the OpenID AuthZEN WG got together and demoed their authorization endpoints conforming to the AuthZEN API
Generating privacy-protected synthetic data using Secludy and MilvusZilliz
During this demo, the founders of Secludy will demonstrate how their system utilizes Milvus to store and manipulate embeddings for generating privacy-protected synthetic data. Their approach not only maintains the confidentiality of the original data but also enhances the utility and scalability of LLMs under privacy constraints. Attendees, including machine learning engineers, data scientists, and data managers, will witness first-hand how Secludy's integration with Milvus empowers organizations to harness the power of LLMs securely and efficiently.
13. COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS
Economic Assessment
• It is one of the important and common way of carrying “economic
assessment” of a proposed information system.
This is done by comparing the expected costs of development and
operation of the system with its benefits.
• So it takes an account:
• Expected cost of development of system
• Expected cost of operation of system
• Benefits obtained
• Assessment is based on:
• Whether the estimated costs are executed by the estimated income.
• And by other benefits
• For achieving benefit where there is scarce resources, projects will be
prioritized and resource are allocated effectively.
• The standard way of evaluating economic benefits of any project is done
by “cost benefit analysis”
16. Three categories of benefits:
•Direct benefits: directly obtained benefit by making use
of / operating the system.
Example: reduction of salary bills, through the introduction
of a new , computerized system
•Assessable indirect benefits: these benefits are obtained
due to updation/upgrading the performance of current
system. It is also referred as “secondary benefits”.
Example: “use of user – friendly screen”, which promotes
reduction in errors, thus increases the benefit.
•Intangible benefits: these benefits are long term, difficult to
quantify. It is also referred as “indirect benefits”.
Example: enhanced job interest leads to reduction of staff
turnover, in-turn leads lower recruitment costs.

21. Net profit
• Net profit
• calculated by subtracting a company's total expenses from
total income.
• showing what the company has earned (or lost) in a given
period of time (usually one year).
• also called net income or net earnings.
Net profit=total costs-total incomes

‘Year 0’ represents all
the costs before
system is operation
‘Cash-flow’ is value of
income less
outgoing
Net profit value of all
the cash-flows for
the lifetime of the
application
