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.
