  • Data Vault and 'The Truth' About the Enterprise Data Warehouse
    Data Vault and ‘The Truth’ about the Enterprise Data Warehouse Roelant Vos – 04-05-2012 Brisbane, Australia Introduction More often than not, when discussion about data modeling and information architecture move towards the Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW) heated discussions occur and (alternative) solutions are proposed supported by claims that these alternatives are quicker and easier to develop than the cumbersome EDW while also delivering value to the business in a more direct way. Apparently, the EDW has a bad image. An image that seems to be associated with long development times, high complexity, difficulties in maintenance and a falling short on promises in general. It is true that in the past many EDW projects have suffered from stagnation during the data integration (development) phase. These projects have stalled in a cycle of changes in ETL and data model design and the subsequent unit and acceptance testing. No usable information is presented to the business users while being stuck in this vicious cycle and as a result an image of inability is painted by the Data Warehouse team (and often at high costs). Why are things this way? One of the main reasons is that the Data Warehouse / Business Intelligence industry defines and works with The Enterprise Data architectures that do not (can not) live up to their promises. To date Warehouse has a bad there are (still) many Data Warehouse specialists who argue that an image while in reality it is EDW is always expensive, complex and monolithic whereas the real driven by business cases, message should be that an EDW is in fact driven by business cases, adaptive and quick to adaptive and quick to deliver.

  • Integration of Heterogeneous Data in the Data Vault Model
    Institute for Parallel and Distributed Systems Universität Stuttgart Universitätsstraße 38 70569 Stuttgart Germany Master Thesis Integration of Heterogeneous Data in the Data Vault Model Geethanjali Nataraj Study Program: Computer Science Examiner: Dr. Holger Schwarz Advisor: Corinna Giebler, M.Sc. Informatik Start Date: 17. July 2018 End Date: 17. January 2019 Abstract Data increases tremendously with respect to volume, velocity, and variety. Nowadays, most of these data are unstructured like text documents, images, videos, Internet of Things (IoT) data, etc. Especially in enterprises, the analysis of semi-structured and unstructured data together with traditional structured data can add value. For example, semi-structured email data can be combined with structured customer data to keep a complete record of all customer information. Likewise, unstructured IoT data can be combined with structured machine data to enable predictive maintenance. Thereby, heterogeneous data need to be efficiently stored, integrated, and analyzed to derive useful business insights. The traditional modeling techniques like Kimball’s approach and Inmon’s approach are primarily focused on modeling structured data. Due to vast amounts of data being collected and agile project execution, scalability and flexibility become more essential characteristics in data modeling. However, especially regarding flexibility, the traditional data modeling approaches used in data warehousing face some limitations. Therefore, Data Vault modeling was developed to overcome these limitations. However, the Data Vault model was designed for structured data. To combine these structured data with semi-structured and unstructured data, the Data Vault model therefore needs to be adapted. However, there exists no comprehensive approach to do so for both semi-structured and unstructured data.

    Awel Eshetu Fentaw Data Vault Modelling An Introductory Guide Helsinki Metropolia University of Applied Sciences Bachelor of Engineering Information Technology Thesis 31 March 2014 Abstract Author(s) Awel Eshetu Fentaw Title Data Vault Modelling: An Introductory Guide Degree Bachelor of Engineering Degree Programme Information Technology Specialisation option Software Engineering Instructor(s) Olli Hämäläinen, Senior Lecturer The theme of this thesis is to prepare an introductory guide to Data Vault Modelling. The Data Vault is a relatively new method of modelling enterprise data warehouses. The Data Vault uses three core components to model an entire data warehouse. Thus it provides an easy alternate solution for data warehousing. The thesis project was conducted by researching books, scientific journal articles, profes- sional blog posts and professional community discussions. By doing so scattered infor- mation about Data Vault Modelling was gathered and analysed and compiled in to a guidebook. This paper could be used as a quick guidebook for those interested in finding information about Data Vault Modelling. Data Vault is a relatively new solution to enterprise data warehousing. Although it intro- duces a better way of modelling enterprise data warehouses, it still has limitations when it comes to providing strict guidelines and handling unstructured text, semi-structured Doc Style data, XML and other data types which are broadly known as Big Data. These data types cannot be handled using the current approaches, tools and techniques; however there is an ongoing research to make the Data Vault Model be able to handle such Big Data. Thus this thesis includes only officially published articles about Data Vault.

  • Data Warehouse and Master Data Management Evolution – a Meta-Data-Vault Approach
    https://doi.org/10.48009/2_iis_2014_14-23 Issues in Information Systems Volume 15, Issue II, pp. 14-23, 2014 DATA WAREHOUSE AND MASTER DATA MANAGEMENT EVOLUTION – A META-DATA-VAULT APPROACH Danijela Subotic, Department of Informatics/University of Rijeka, [email protected] Vladan Jovanovic, Georgia Southern University, [email protected] Patrizia Poscic, Department of Informatics/University of Rijeka, [email protected] ABSTRACT The paper presents a: a) brief overview and analysis of existing approaches to the data warehouse (DW) evolution problem, and b) detailed description of the research idea for the DW evolution problem (primarily intended for structured data sources and realizations with relational database engines). We observe the DW evolution problem as a double issue - from the DW perspective, and from the master data management (MDM) perspective. The proposed general solution will include a Data Vault (DV) model based metadata repository that will integrate the DW data and metadata with the MDM data and metadata. This historicized metadata repository will manage schema versions and support schema changes. We believe this integration will: a) increase the quality of data in the Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW), b) increase the quality of the metadata in the EDW, and c) increase the simplicity and efficiency of the DW and the MDM schema evolution. Keywords: data warehouse evolution, master data management, data vault, metadata repository, schema evolution, schema versioning, view maintenance INTRODUCTION A data warehouse (DW) integrates current and historical data from a number of heterogeneous data sources into a central repository of data which is then used for business reporting, trend projections and quick data analysis.

WILLIAMS (Under the Direction of Vladan Jovanovic) ABSTRACT Data warehouse (DW) projects are undertakings that require integration of disparate sources of data, a well-defined mapping of the source data to the reconciled data, and effective Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) processes. Owing to the complexity of data warehouse projects, great emphasis must be placed on an agile-based approach with properly developed and executed test plans throughout the various stages of designing, developing, and implementing the data warehouse to mitigate against budget overruns, missed deadlines, low customer satisfaction, and outright project failures. Yet, there are often attempts to test the data warehouse exactly like traditional back-end databases and legacy applications, or to downplay the role of quality assurance (QA) and testing, which only serve to fuel the frustration and mistrust of data warehouse and business intelligence (BI) systems.

  • Raman & Cata Data Vault Modeling and Its Evolution
    Raman & Cata Data Vault Modeling and its Evolution _____________________________________________________________________________________ DECISION SCIENCES INSTITUTE Conceptual Data Vault Modeling and its Opportunities for the Future Aarthi Raman, Active Network, Dallas, TX, 75201 [email protected] Teuta Cata, Northern Kentucky University, Highland Heights, KY, 41099 [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper presents conceptual view of Data Vault Modeling (DVM), its architecture and future opportunities. It also covers concepts and definitions of data warehousing, data model by Kimball and Inmon and its evolution towards DVM. This approach is illustrated using a realistic example of the Library Management System. KEYWORDS: Conceptual Data Vault, Master Data Management, Extraction Transformation Loading INTRODUCTION This paper explains the scope, introduces basic terminologies, explains the requirements for designing a Data Vault (DV) type data warehouse, and explains its association. The design of DV is based on Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW)/ Data Mart (DM). A Data Warehouse is defined as: “a subject oriented, non-volatile, integrated, time variant collection of data in support management’s decisions” by Inmon (1992). A data warehouse can also be used to support the everlasting system of records and compliance and improved data governance (Jarke M, Lenzerini M, Vassiliou Y, Vassiliadis P, 2003). Data Marts are smaller Data Warehouses that constitute only a subset of the Enterprise Data Warehouse. An important feature of Data Marts is they provide a platform for Online Analytical Processing Analysis (OLAP) (Ćamilović D., Bečejski-Vujaklija D., Gospić N, 2009). Therefore, OLAP is a natural extension of a data warehouse (Krneta D., Radosav D., Radulovic B, 2008). Data Marts are a part of data storage, which contains summarized data.
