Hi Marcos,

Thanks so much for your feedback! We will keep this information in mind when we are planning and scheduling business intelligence content for future issues of SQL Server Magazine.

If you're looking for more information about the ETL process, I recommend reading "Build a Simple ETL System with SSIS" at http://www.sqlmag.com/Article/ArticleID/93114/Build_a_Simple_ETL_System_with_SSIS.html. Another great resource is Rodney Landrum's article "SQL Server Integration Services" at http://www.sqlmag.com/Article/ArticleID/95385/sql_server_95385.html.

Please let me know if you have any questions or if I can point you to any more of our content.

Nice case, I like the overview offered. It would be nice to detail this implementation in next issues. I specially like to know more about the ETL process, what happen to the data that are not imported to DW? Wouldn't it cause a distortion in the analisys? Thanks.
