On July 15, Mathias Brink and I ran a webinar about Data Vault on EXASOL, modeling and implementation. The webinar started with an overview of the concepts of Data Vault Modeling and how Data Vault Modeling enables agile development cycles. Afterwards, we showed a demo that transformed the TPC-H data model into a Data Vault data model and how you can then query the data out of the Data Vault data model. The results were then compared with the original queries of the TPC-H.

In der Vergangenheit hatte ich immer wieder Bedarf an großen Datensätzen, um Datenlogistikprozesse oder eine Datenbanktechnologie für Data Vault zu testen.

Last week in June I was at the TDWI Conference 2016 at Munich. ITGAIN, my employer, had as a platin sponsor a booth to present our products and services!



In my point of view, it was another great TDWI conference at Munich with a lot of awesome people I could talk with - including an interesting discussion about data architecture with Mark (Madsen) and all the nonsense happening in the Big Data world.

You may have received an e-mail invitation from EXASOL or from ITGAIN inviting you to our forthcoming webinar, such as this:

Do you have difficulty incorporating different data sources into your current database? Would you like an agile development environment? Or perhaps you are using Data Vault for data modeling and are facing performance issues?
If so, then attend our free webinar entitled “Data Vault Modeling with EXASOL: High performance and agile data warehousing.” The 60-minute webinar takes place on July 15 from 10:00 to 11:00 am CEST.

I reactivated my Meetup Data Vault Interest Group this week. Long time ago I was thinking about a table of fellow regulars to network with other, let’s call them Data Vaulters. It should be a relaxed get-together, no business driven presentation or even worse advertisement for XYZ tool, consulting or any flavor of Data Vault. The feedback of many people was that they want something different to the existing Business Intelligence Meetings. So, here it is!

Some time ago a customers asked me how to load easy and simple some (test)data into their database XYZ (chose the one of your choice and replace XYZ) to test their new developed Data Vault logistic processes.
The point was: They don’t want to use all this ETL-tool and IT-processes overhead just to some small test in their own environment. If this this is well done from a data governance perspective? Well, that’s not part of this blogpost. Just do this kind of thingis only in your development environment.

Past, present and future, where did I speak and where will I speak at conferences?

Since my calendar fills up more and more with presentations at conferences I'll give you a summary to keep track on it. Some of them are already confirmed, for others I've submitted my abstracts but yet not confirmed.
