Извиняюсь, вот читабельная версия:
кто-нить знает что это Dimensional Models (reporting databases)?
Blueprint's (
http://www.bpms.co.uk )view is that cubes are inflexible and are developed in such a way as to answer a limited range of business questions. In practice, this limits analysis and reporting by forcing users down predefined analysis paths.
Blueprint advocates the use of Dimensional Models (reporting databases) that allow business users to answer all their questions from one source. When used alongside tools such as Business Objects this approach provide end users and technical teams with flexible and powerful reporting solution capable of pulling and analysing information from any source and perspective.
