11 points to consider for a solid EDW transformation strategy
Making the move from EDW to the cloud can be daunting. A thorough understanding of requirements, possible scenarios, and processes is crucial to ensure a smooth transition. Organizations must also be equipped to deal with risks such as data loss, and even worse - failed implementation.
