Sequence 195 — Meridian applied lab - execute, vary and prove

Context: Chapter 11 - Data Warehousing and Business Intelligence | Applied Lab
Source: CDMP Master Execution Manual

When / purpose

Perform the Chapter 11 work independently enough that the output is evidence of understanding rather than tutorial completion.

What you should learn

  • Follow the business problem, not a click path.
  • Explain every technology action that affects the result.
  • Vary or break one fact when the lab design calls for it.
  • Preserve before/after evidence and reasoning.

What to read / study

  • MUST: Chapter 11 Applied Lab guide — use the source-grounded Chapter 11 lab once available; do not substitute a generic web lab.
  • MUST: Meridian evidence area — save evidence and journal entries; no real sensitive data.

Do this in order

  1. Perform the lab in the prescribed order.
  2. Annotate decisions and assumptions as you work.
  3. When a script/template is supplied, explain it before running and change a learning-critical part yourself.
  4. Capture the required evidence.
  5. Rebuild or repeat the critical portion without step-by-step prompting.

Meridian application

Expected outputs: Star schema; load SQL; KPI definitions; dashboard.

Create / save

Star schema; load SQL; KPI definitions; dashboard + evidence + independent reconstruction proof.

Stop / boundary

If the Chapter 11 Applied Lab guide is missing, stop at this learner gate. The 00C migration does not create it.

Completion gate

You can reproduce the critical result and explain how it demonstrates Chapter 11 rather than merely showing a finished artifact.

Operationalized from the verified canonical 00C Master Execution Manual; not a verbatim transcription. Separate chapter artifacts are not created by this migration.
