Many people in the BI industry don’t believe that agile delivery
frameworks can be applied to data warehouses. BI projects
are too complex to be delivered by a ‘light’ framework, they

the multiple toolsets and technologies and the complexity
of the data extractions and transformations, ‘agile’ is just
not suitable.

– the outcome cannot be precisely known; the processes applied
to development are not discrete and therefore are not repeatable
with a high probability. Rather an empirical process is required
where complexity and change are embraced.
