Shawn,
Implementing the schema is fairly easy...you have a model for each of
you dimensions and model for each of your facts. The facts will have
foreign keys which reference the dimensions that are connected to that
fact. You can and should reuse dimensions.
AW works on top of AR and adds additional functionality like auto
creation of aggregation storage tables, UI helpers, etc.
If you would like to talk about ActiveWarehouse or data warehousing in
general then feel free to email me directly or join the
ActiveWarehouse mailing list.
Sincerely,
Anthony Eden
