3.0 out of 5 stars Its supposed to be vague, 2 Jun 1998

By A Customer

The purpose of the book is not to provide a blueprint so that you can plug in components and, voila, your warehouse is built. It is to provide a framework, a set of parameters, a way of looking at the task of building the warehouse. Probably explains why they call it the Zachman Framework and not the Zachman Blueprint.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book is to vague, 26 Nov 1997

By A Customer

Building a Data Warehouse is like building a house or a maschine. Well, yes in a very general sense. This book is about analogies, but analogies are not sufficient to build something. This book is unfortunately to vague to be usefull
