Dataupia does not claim that Hinshaw is the father of data warehousing. But he is certainly the pioneer in data warehousing *appliances*. I have corrected the story. @Chas — You’re quite right, that was my mistake. Dataupia does not claim that Hinshaw is the father of data warehousing.

Mr. Hinshaw is credited with coining the term "data warehouse appliance" and he certainly was a DW appliance pioneer who did groundbreaking work at Netezza. However, he did not create the DW industry. “Hinshaw—who is widely considered to be the father of the data warehousing industry…” Sorry, but that distinction is Bill Inmon’s alone.
