IntelliCape

This month's topic: Adventures with BIML

The essence of the talk is about an alternative design pattern for an incremental staging load.

Celebrating the ability for BI developers to use creative means of delivering project work in spite of seeming insurmountable obstacles.

This talk will be a showcase of innovation, mixing up various pieces of code to solve a complex ETL requirement.

More of an ETL "hack" demo than an instruction of how to create the perfect incremental load design pattern but never the less resulting in a Production ready deployment.

In Paul's own words "It's not a text book approach. Ralph Kimball would probably not approve, and quite frankly, I don't care! :) "
