Data-Driven Data Vault
Data-Driven Data Vault
A data warehousing methodology that models data based on how it's used by the business, not how it should ideally be. It focuses on the actual data structures and relationships.
Logical Data Vault
Logical Data Vault
A data warehousing methodology that models the business as it should be, focusing on ideal data structures and relationships.
Source Vault
Source Vault
A data warehousing methodology that models raw data directly from sources, without applying any business logic or transformations.

Study Notes
Data Vault Modelling Choices
- Flow.BI supports only the data-driven Data Vault model.
- Three main Data Vault modelling approaches exist:
- Logical Data Vault: Models the business as it should be, applying business logic.
- Source Vault: Models raw data only, ignoring any business rules.
- Data-driven Data Vault: Models raw data as it is used by the business, a middle ground approach.
- Flow.BI prioritizes the data-driven approach, as it's a model useful for future automation.
- A Logical Data Vault approach is not compatible with Flow.BI, due to its reliance on business logic.
- Flow.BI only supports the Data-driven Data Vault approach. Other Data Vault approaches (Source Vault) are possible but not recommended if not directly business logic driven.
- Implementing other approaches (Source Vault) is possible, if they do not depend on business logic.
- Implementing a Source Vault is possible within Flow.BI, but is not recommended due to potential performance issues.
- The data-driven approach is recommended for its flexibility, scalability and support for additional automation features.
Data-Driven Data Vault Model
- A data-driven Data Vault model is a flexible and scalable model, designed for data-driven organizations.
- Key principles include:
- Data is the source of truth: Raw data stored without transformations to allow varied uses (analytics, reporting, machine learning).
- Flexibility and Extensibility: Designed for organizational change.
- Scalability: Ability to handle large datasets.
- Typically implemented using relational databases, but can adapt to other database types like NoSQL, if desired.
