Abstract

Ensuring that data warehouses are aligned to the business strategy is critical for their success, as these are used by business managers to analyze the organization's strategic data. An approach to requirements engineering-oriented business that aligns the data store to its strategic plan is presented. The process is described by a set of guidelines that include: VMOST analysis to obtain the objectives from the users, the BMM model to verify that the defined objectives are aligned with the strategy, modeling objectives through i* to obtain the information requirements of the data warehouse and multidimensional modeling by UML profile. A case study to show the entire process is presented.
