  43. Data Modeling using Oracle BI Server • Design goal for the BI Server metadata layer is to create a Star Schema • Fact tables • Dimension tables • Drill paths • Source data can either be pre-integrated (data mart,data warehouse) or integrated using the BI Server (“federated”) • Federated can be faster to deliver (report in place) • Assumes data sources share common key values • Data marts are simpler and faster to query • MDX (OLAP, Multi-dimensional) data is converted into RDBMS row-sets • Logical layer is main integration point • Presentation layer allows “report centric” folders T : +44 (0) 8446 697 995 or (888) 631 1410 (USA) E : enquiries@rittmanmead.com W: www.rittmanmead.com

  44. Information Model Layers • Physical Layer contains connections, physical tables • Connections start as ODBC, switch to native (OCI etc) • Primary keys and foreign keys • Logical layer is where the data is integrated • Logical fact tables, logical dimension tables • Dimensions • Calculations • Complex joins to define relationships • Presentation layer is where data is presented • Can be a simple copy of the logical layer • Or can be made more personalized • Report centric T : +44 (0) 8446 697 995 or (888) 631 1410 (USA) E : enquiries@rittmanmead.com W: www.rittmanmead.com

  45. Star Schema Design Approach • Classic “Kimball” approach • Fact tables contain measures, and joins to dimensions • No attributes except for degenerate dimensions • Leave IDs in, remove in Presentation layer • Dimension tables contain lookup data • Customer, Product, Time etc • Dimensions can however be facts • Use alias tables to disambiguate • Dimension objects define drill path • Multiple hierarchies supported • Ragged hierarchies possible (see later) • Time dimensions enable time-series queries T : +44 (0) 8446 697 995 or (888) 631 1410 (USA) E : enquiries@rittmanmead.com W: www.rittmanmead.com

  46. Sample Business Model T : +44 (0) 8446 697 995 or (888) 631 1410 (USA) E : enquiries@rittmanmead.com W: www.rittmanmead.com

  47. Data Modeling Workflow Steps • Create logical model in business model & mapping layer • Import physical data sources & define primary and foreign keys • Map logical model to physical model • Create initial calculations • Create dimensions • Rename and tidy-up logical model • Create initial presentation model • Create complex calculations, time dimensions etc • Add additional columns to presentation model T : +44 (0) 8446 697 995 or (888) 631 1410 (USA) E : enquiries@rittmanmead.com W: www.rittmanmead.com

  48. Exercise Reporting Scenario • Global Company has a data warehouse, containing order and customer data • Requirement is to take the existing warehouse (normalized)and turn it into a star schema (denormalized) • For now, OBIEE will be used to map the data T : +44 (0) 8446 697 995 or (888) 631 1410 (USA) E : enquiries@rittmanmead.com W: www.rittmanmead.com

  49. Step 1: Create Logical Model in Business Model Layer • Firstly, create new logical model • Then create logical tables and columns • Either create from scratch, then connect to physical(best practice) • Or define by dragging and dropping physical tables • Start from fact table and work outward to the dimensions • Do one fact/dimension combination first • Then add more facts • ... and more dimensions • Add details on datatypes etc later on T : +44 (0) 8446 697 995 or (888) 631 1410 (USA) E : enquiries@rittmanmead.com W: www.rittmanmead.com

  50. Demonstration • Create a new Logical Business Model in the Repository T : +44 (0) 8446 697 995 or (888) 631 1410 (USA) E : enquiries@rittmanmead.com W: www.rittmanmead.com
