Question No: 21 ( Marks: 2 )
What is meant by the statement Be a diplomat NOT a technologist in the
context of a data warehouse development project?
7. Be a diplomat NOT a technologist
The biggest problem you will face during a warehouse implementation will be people, not the technology or the development. You’re going to have senior management complaining about completion dates and unclear objectives. You’re going to have development people protesting that everything takes too long and why can’t they do it the old way? You’re going to have users with outrageously unrealistic expectations, who are used to systems that require mouse-clicking but not much intellectual investment on their part. And you’re going to grow exhausted, separating out Needs from Wants at all levels. Commit from the outset to work very hard at communicating the realities, encouraging investment, and cultivating the development of new skills in your team and your users (and even your bosses).


Question No: 22 ( Marks: 2 )
Elaborate the concept of data parallelism.
Parallel execution of a single data manipulation task across multiple partitions of data.
Partitions static or dynamic
Tasks executed almost-independently across partitions.
“Query coordinator” must coordinate between the independently executing processes.
So data parallelism is I think the simplest form of parallelization. The idea is that we have parallel execution of single data operation across multiple partitions of data. So the idea here is that these partitions of data may be defined statically or dynamically fine, but we are requiring the same operator across these multiple partitions concurrently. And this idea actually of data parallelism has existed for a very long time.



Question No: 23 ( Marks: 2 )
What will be the effect if we program a package by using DTS object model?

Question No: 24 ( Marks: 3 )
What is meant by the classification process? How we measure the accuracy of
classifiers?

Question No: 25 ( Marks: 3 )
How page dimension captures the static and dynamic nature of different web
pages?
Question No: 26 ( Marks: 3 )
Write down the limitations of pipelining parallelism?
Pipeline parallelism is a good fit for data warehousing (where we are working with lots of data), but it makes no sense for OLTP because OLTP tasks are not big enough to justify breaking them down into subtasks.
