It maybe cost effective for organisations to operate in this manner but methinks that data explosion will begin to cause corporations with this set up run time problems. We can only hope that these corporations begin running projects from the vision and direction of the business rather than the balance sheet. I'm not too hopeful that we can topple the accountants to this way of thinking i.e. building robust systems with leading edge technology scalable for more than the next year or two. I would imagine you have more insight, are you hopeful that Oracle 11g is best placed and priced to exploit what is a huge market?

How do you reduce size of columns generated by OLAP view generator(1.0.2) in AWM.Its impossible for BI Admin tool to read these views i.e

PRODUCT VARCHAR2(4000 Bytes)
SUPPLY VARCHAR2(4000 Bytes)
BRANCHES VARCHAR2(4000 Bytes)
AGES VARCHAR2(4000 Bytes)
AGE_DATES VARCHAR2(4000 Bytes)

In your example you had smaller column sizes i.e
time_id varchar2(100)
customer_id varchar2(100)
product_id varchar2(100)
channel_id varchar2(100)
