Father of the Data Warehouse, ForestRim Technology
Bill Inmon — the “father of data warehouse” — has written 60 books published in nine languages. Bill’s latest adventure is the building of technology known as textual disambiguation (textual ETL) — technology that reads raw text in a narrative format and allows the text to be placed in a conventional database so that it can be analyzed by standard analytical technology, thereby creating unique business value for big data/unstructured data. Bill was named by ComputerWorld as one of the ten most influential people in the history of the computer profession. Bill lives in Denver, Colorado.
Three of Bill’s latest books are Data Architecture: Second Edition, Elsevier press, Hearing the Voice of the Customer, Technics Publications, and Turning Text Into Gold, Technics Publications.
