Ralph Kimball′s three data warehousing books, The Data Warehouse Toolkit, The Data Warehouse Lifecycle Toolkit, and The Data Webhouse Toolkit, provide you with everything you will need to create, manage, and use your data warehouse.
His first book, The Data Warehouse Toolkit, is the definitive guide to building a data warehouse. Kimball uses actual case studies of existing data warehouses developed for specific types of business applications such as retail, manufacturing, banking, insurance, subcriptions and airline reservations.
Using the techniques learned in Kimball′s first book, The Data Warehouse Lifecycle Toolkit carries them to the larger issues of delivering complete data marts and data warehouses. The book shows you all the practical details involved in planning, designing, developing, deploying, and growing data warehouses.
The Data Webhouse Toolkit is a groundbreaking guide which introduces the Webhouse, a powerful new way of capturing valuable information flowing into a Web site and ordering it in ways that are useful to managers, strategic decision–makers, and customers.

In The Data Warehouse Lifecycle Toolkit, authors Ralph Kimball, Laura Reeves, Margy Ross and Warren Thornthwaite present a structure for undertaking the mammoth task of implementing a data warehouse. As part of a rather select group of professionals actually experienced in building data warehouses, the authors attempt to convey their expertise about how to approach the job. The book focuses on the "Star Lifecycle"--a high-level, project-planning approach to evolving existing information systems into an ever-changing data-warehouse solution. --Stephen Plain, Amazon.com
A comprehensive, thoughtful, and detailed book that will be of inestimable value to anyone struggling with the complex details of designing, building, and maintaining an enterprise-wide decision support system. Highly recommended. -- Robert S. Craig, Vice President, Application Architectures, Hurwitz Group, Inc.
