There is a lot of buzz going on regarding real time datawarehousing. But how do you actually do this ? How can you implement conformed dimensions and conformed facts in real time ? How can you consolidate data real time ? Vendors promise applications that can make this happen but how is this possible ? Does anybody do this and if yes, how ?

Best regards,

New requirements arise that require new SCD 2 fields to be added.
Backups exist of the source systems.

Are there any design tips, experiences that anyone can share on how to populate the new SCD 2 fields.

Is it just a question of rebuilding the whole DW DB using those backups until you've caught up with 'Now'?

Thanks
