Tools and techniques for simple, flexible, and efficient development, maintenance, and administration of your data warehouse are described.

The book includes an overview of the interfaces and middleware services needed to connect end users, including Web users, to the data warehouse. It also describes a number of end-user BI tools that interoperate with S/390, including query and reporting tools, OLAP tools, tools for data mining, and complete packaged application solutions.
