Data warehousing
I should be grateful if some one could advise on the system requirements for data warehousing for say 500 clients consisting of professional people. This is proposed to be set up in uptown New York . If you could refer us to any consultants on the subject for preliminary data I should be grateful. Many thanks, D. Haldar

NCR Corporation is definitely the expert on data warehousing today. I am not sure who would be the best contact there. However, I am sure you can find the necessary information by viewing their web page on scalable data warehousing at http://www3.ncr.com/sdw/ NCR has been in the data warehousing solution for years. As a matter of fact, they have installed the largest data warehousing solution in the world. Their larger solutions are for companies similar to Walmart. However, they also have installed thousands of smaller systems for companies similar to what you describe. Actually, data warehousing is one of NCRs primary focuses. I noticed on their web page this month features an article on data warehousing by their CEO. http://events.broadcast.com/events/ncr/nyberg/ Their home page is http://www.ncr.com Hope that this helps. Best regards, Jay Kirkland : P.S.: NCR is an expert in multi-processing servers. Over the last year their Worldmark 4380 server has won many prestigious awards including Best Server at Comdex. This server is ideal as a base for your data warehouse system. See the following for more info: http://www3.ncr.com/support/nt/systems/4380.htm
