Well – the reason I put in the previous post was because as we have struggled to build our data warehouse, one of the things that we have continually struggled with is data that resides in spreadsheets, post-it-notes, emails. PDF files and other unstructured formats.
To solve for the problem of capturing unstructured data in a structured format I had to look at building simple yet robust applications for people to enter or upload their data. This prompted me to look around for different options for building applications quickly. I am not saying one way is better than an other (though I probably will) but I will present a couple of options and they will help not only data warehouse and BI teams, but application developers also.
More to come tomorrow.
Take care all
