I'm interested in reading this, but I hope people also read the classic books on the Kimball model. Yes, it is "old", but it is "old" in the way sql and relational database are "old" - the are something people got pretty much right early on. I'm not saying a simple star schema in one db is always the answer, but it is still very often the answer.
It is sad that so many data modelers are just playing it by ear and have never read anything on the topic. I'm finding this to be more and more true throughout programing though. Nobody reads the definitive books anymore, just blog posts and SO, and maybe some online bootcamp. And engineering quality is declining accordingly.
