Reader ReviewsHello Amazon, The author, who has written extentsively on the subjects of DW and DM is also associated with Sequent Computer Systems, a respected manufacturer and vendor of high-end Enterprise Data Centers, and a highly experienced player in the DW, CRM, DSS space. So, although I wouldn't discourage anyone interested in DW/DM in Telcos to read this book I would not do so with the previso that this is a perspective of data warehousing and data mining in Telecoms, and that there will be a divergence of opinion with a number of Mr. Mattisons observations, facts and experiences. There is technology bias in most books that touch on the subjects (of Telcos, Data Warehousing and Data Mining), however this is pretty standard, alomost unavoidable and not necessarily undesirable if we take such accounts as one of a number of perspectives on the subject(s). Although I didn't find the conenction between DW and KM to be too convincing, or the DW development strategy one that I would concur with, I would say that the attempt to identify the Telco value chain to be very well articulated. So yes, if you are interested in the subject then go ahead and read it, but don't forget to put what you get from it in context - with the other diverse opinions on DW/DM and Telecoms - not too mention a lot of dramatically differing opinions regarding Knowledge Management.
