 and shell scripts •Went on to use Oracle Developer/2000 and Designer/2000 •Our initial users queried the DW using SQL*Plus •And later on, we rolled-out Discoverer/2000 to everyone else •And life was fun…

 automate and model the DW build •Oracle 9i Application Server (yay!) 
 to deliver reports and web portals •Data Mining and OLAP in the database •Oracle 9i for in-database ETL (and RAC) •Data was typically loaded from 
 Oracle RBDMS and EBS •It was turtles Oracle all the way down…

 likes, tweets and retweets etc to the transactional dataset ‣Correlate twitter activity with sales increases, drops ‣Measure impact of social media strategy ‣Gather and include textual, sentiment, contextual
 data from surveys, media etc
