Data Warehousing Industry

• Problems Experienced with EDW:

– Not auditable, lack of traceability, cannot support corporate accountability, fails compliance initiatives

– Time to build, complexity, & 50 to 70 percent failure rates– Lack of agility, expensive and extensive re-engineering

required to adapt– Inability to effectively integrate disparate systems – no

enterprise view – fails to meet objectives– Duplicate efforts & higher costs resulting from spread

The Data Vault modeling approach

• The Data Vault is a data modeling approach

…so it fits into the family of modeling approaches:

3rd Normal Form Data Vault Star Schema

• While 3rd Normal Form is optimal for Operational Systems

…and Star Schema is optimal for OLAP Delivery / Data Marts

…the Data Vault is optimal for the Data Warehouse (EDW)6
