Topic:
"Overview of Dimensional Modeling Principles using Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler"

Abstract: Most BI tools require a dimensional model but how do you go about designing that kind of model? What's a star schema, fact or dimension table? In this session we will start with the basics of dimensional modeling including a retail dimensional model example. Then we will take a look at building the model in Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler. This free tool from Oracle has basically all of the same features as licensed data modeling tools. By the end of this session, you should be comfortable building a simple dimensional model in Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler.
