    Study Notes

    Managed Self-Service BI with Data Vault 2.0

    • The concept of managed self-service BI is used to transform organizations into data-driven organizations by making data and information widely available to decision-makers.
    • The goal is to turn gut-feeling decisions into rational, informed decisions by educated decision-makers.

    Reasons for Self-Service and Data Science

    • Managed self-service BI supports two major use cases:
      • Power users who want to extend the data analytics platform by additional, custom-built solutions.
      • Data science use cases where the final solution is often not built on the data analytics platform or is only used for ad-hoc solutions.

    Self-Service BI

    • The common solution is to use technological solutions that allow power users and data scientists to access data sources directly, circumventing the centralized data warehouse, and build their own solutions.
    • This approach can lead to inconsistencies, reinvention of business logic, and regulatory issues.

    Managed Self-Service BI Architecture

    • The architecture extends the Data Vault 2.0 architecture by adding a user space, which is not limited to the relational database.
    • The user space is managed by power users who build their own solutions, and it is similar to sandboxing in other self-service approaches, but without a time limitation.

    User Space

    • The user space is a "green field" where power users can create their own solutions, following best practices such as Data Vault notation and dimensional modeling.
    • The user space can be secured, and access can be controlled, with fences for data and information security, privacy, and auditability.

    Managing Self-Service BI

    • The issue with pure self-service BI is that it lacks management, and power users can do whatever they want, which can lead to a mess.
    • The "managing" in managed self-service BI involves setting up guidelines, monitoring, and supporting power users, including data governance, infrastructure management, and support processes.

    Industrialization

    • Once a solution in the user space exceeds defined thresholds, it deserves additional review and industrialization, which involves analyzing the solution, redesigning it if necessary, and re-implementing it in the IT-controlled area of the data analytics platform.

    Use Cases

    • Examples of using managed self-service BI include:
      • Prototyping new data-driven solutions, where business users can try out new ideas and generate revenue.
      • Extending existing standard solutions by customizing them with additional dimensions and business rules.### Managed Self-Service BI
    • Managed self-service BI is a pattern that combines the benefits of self-service BI with the security and privacy features of Data Vault 2.0.
    • It empowers traditional organizations to become data-driven by making data widely available in a timely manner, within the limits set by the security team.

    The Goal of Managed Self-Service BI

    • The goal is to turn gut-feeling-based decisions into rational decisions made by educated, knowledgeable decision-makers.
    • Every employee, from C-level executives to frontline workers, needs data to make decisions.

    Reasons for Self-Service and Data Science

    • Managed self-service BI supports two major use cases:
      • Power users who want to extend the data analytics platform with custom-built solutions.
      • Data scientists who want to augment data flows with additional raw data and business logic.

    Issues with Self-Service BI

    • Without management, self-service BI can lead to:
      • Reinvention of the wheel (recreating business logic and transformation logic).
      • Inconsistencies due to different interpretations of documentation.
      • Regulatory issues (e.g., GDPR) when extracting data directly from source systems.

    Managed Self-Service BI Architecture

    • The architecture extends the Data Vault 2.0 architecture by adding a user space, where power users can build their own solutions.
    • The user space is managed by power users, while the IT-controlled area above the user space is controlled by the data warehouse team.

    Managing Self-Service BI

    • Management involves:
      • Fences (guidelines) for data and information security, privacy, and auditability.
      • Monitoring the user space for adherence to guidelines and resource consumption.
      • Industrialization of solutions that exceed defined thresholds.

    Industrialization

    • Identifying solutions that exceed thresholds (impact, stability, security, resource consumption).
    • Analyzing, redesigning, and re-implementing solutions from the user space to the IT-controlled area.
    • The goal is to make solutions more scalable, secure, and maintainable.### Customizing Standard Solutions
    • A power user can extend existing standard solutions by creating a new computed satellite in the user space based on a satellite from the Raw Data Vault or Business Vault.
    • The user-defined satellite only exists in the user space and can be used to create a custom dimension.
    • The power user can copy the DDL statement for a dimension view in an information mart and customize it to use the satellite data from the user space.

    Creating Custom Dimensions

    • A power user cannot create anything in the IT-driven area of the architecture, so they must create custom dimensions in the user space.
    • The custom dimension can be consumed by a custom-built dashboard, replacing the standard dimension with the modified dimension.

    Distinguishing Between Reports

    • It can be hard to distinguish between standard reports built by the data analytics team and power user reports.
    • To help casual users distinguish between these reports, it is advised to add a footnote to standard reports indicating that they were built by the data analytics team.
    • Power users can add any footnote they want, but should not claim that a report was built by the data analytics team.

    Managed Self-Service BI

    • Managed Self-Service BI is a pattern that works well with business-driven organizations.
    • It allows for the adoption of the platform and the agility of the data analytics team to provide data to decision makers.
    • Data Vault 2.0 helps organizations make data widely available in time, within limits set by the security team.
