I'm more and more getting involved with OLAP projects, and I have to admit I'm not at all familiar with such things as star schemas, clustered tables, reporting cubes, and the like. Since I'd like to rectify this situation, and making the non-OLTP projects go away isn't working anymore, does anyone know a good starting point to learning this stuff? I'd of course prefer some kind of on-line resource to get my feet wet, then a tome or two that will give me the more detailed guidance as to the effective design and implementation of an OLAP schema.

Thanks!
