Oracle database tuning

Data warehouses are valuable and rich sources for management reporting and marketing information if developed, managed and harnessed correctly. We can help deliver maximum utility from your data with the following services.

DATA WAREHOUSE DESIGN

We can design your data warehouse database using industry-standard star schema modelling techniques. We can also devise and implement an appropriate data aggregation strategy, based on your data volumes and query requirements. Using Oracle's revolutionary materialized view and query rewrite technology, the resulting aggregates will deliver even the most complex data analysis results in seconds.

Our wealth of experience in the field ensures that crucial data warehouse design challenges such as Slowly Changing Dimension handling and source system change detection are correctly managed.

DATA WAREHOUSE DEVELOPMENT

We can assist you with all aspects of data warehouse development, including but not restricted to data feed management and set up, database set up and development, dimension table augmentation and conformation, and data archiving.

ETL TOOL (EXTRACT, TRANSFORM, LOAD) EVALUATION AND SET UP

A range of ETL products exist to simplify the considerable challenge of defining, developing and maintaining source data feeds. These products vary greatly in terms of both cost of ownership and feature lists. We can help choose the right tool for you, and can even develop proprietary solutions if no product exists to adequately suit your needs.

DATA VISUALISATION AND DATA WAREHOUSE REPORTING

We have recently completed complex data warehouse reporting projects with high-profile clients, and maintain in-depth knowledge of the latest data reporting and visualisation products. Our experience helps our clients implement robust, supportable and future-proof business intelligence tools, while minimising hardware, license and consultancy spend.

Recent consolidation in the business intelligence market means that some previously high-profile products may disappear. We have the time and experience to maintain a view on where the market is  heading, so you don't have to.

Q: Our data warehouse is already set up. Can you tune/enhance it?
A: Yes, we are database tuning specialists. However, many data warehouse performance issues stem from non-optimal design. Correcting such design errors can involve significant effort.

Q: Are you affiliated with any ETL or Business Intelligence product vendors?
A: No, Pro-DBA.com is a completely independent company, and receives no commission from any third party. We therefore give entirely impartial advice on third party ETL, Business Intelligence and Data Visualisation products.

Q: Which database technologies do you deal with?
A: We are Oracle database experts, and are also highly experienced in Microsoft SQL Server data warehousing technology. Although we can work with other database technologies, our main body of database expertise lies with these two database vendors.

Q: Do you provide warranties for work performed?
A: We will ask you to assess and sign-off the work performed before our consultants leave your site. However, we also provide free remote support for four weeks.

Q: When can we expect documentation for the tasks performed?
A: We typically write up project tasks performed within one week of completion. You are guaranteed to have a documentation hard-copy within two weeks.

Q: We require assistance with a client's installation/project. Do you offer resales/subcontracts?
A: Yes. We can rebadge our services, or can pay a one-off commission/referral bounty to you.

Q: How can we be sure of your credentials?
A: We have been providing database consultancy to household name clients since 1996, and company references are available on request.
