Last night Erik Veerman of Solid Quality Learning presented at the Atlanta MDF SQL Server User Group on the topic of Dimensional Modeling. The turnout was great - probably 100 people or more attended. Erik began with a high level overview comparing OLAP vs. OLTP systems. He also described the characteristics of Fact and Dimension tables. It was an interesting overview, and he will also be presenting at the SC Code Camp. He also presented a puzzle he had published in SQL Server Magazine last month - a number sequence. Given the following sequence of integers, identify the pattern in the sequence and how it should continue: 3,3,5,4,4,3,5,5,4,3,6,6,8,8.
I will post the solution in a few days.
The solution to the number sequence problem is that each number represents the number of letters for numbers starting with 1 (one) = three letters, 2 (two) = 3 letters and so. Good puzzel Erik!
