HELPING TO SOLVE COMMON PROBLEMS

Is this you?

“I want to know the end to end process to build a data warehouse, but I don’t know where to start!”

Does you or your data team struggle with these things?

You need to design a robust data warehouse but the architectural options are complex and diverse. You’re not sure which architecture fits best with your business requirements.

There are so many data capabilities, tools and technologies available for data warehousing. You have to choose, but you don’t know which capabilities you should implement first or which capabilities will align with your strategic goals.

You are tasked with gathering requirements for your data warehouse, but every stakeholder has different needs and expectations. You need a systematic approach to capture these requirements effectively, but lack a method that everyone can understand and agree upon.

You are responsible for the data design in your data warehouse, but creating an optimal design that supports both current and future needs is daunting. You need patterns that accommodate complex data relationships and queries efficiently, but finding the right balance is proving difficult.

Your data comes from various sources and needs to be integrated. You’re tasked with combining it into a unified data warehouse, but the integration process is filled with technical hurdles.

You are going to be responsible for the quality and consistency of data in your data warehouse. However, ensuring high standards across varied data sets is proving to be exceptionally challenging.

You’re faced with the challenge of implementing complex transformation logic within your data flows. You need to ensure accuracy and efficiency, but the intricacy of these transformations is overwhelming and prone to errors.

Your organisation is growing, and so are your data needs. You need your data warehouse to scale accordingly, but scalability planning is more complicated than expected.

Your data works is growing in complexity and volume, necessitating a larger data team. You need to scale the data work being done, but you are not able to hire more people to scale your data team.

You need to maintain a high level of observability in your data platform to quickly identify and resolve issues, but your not sure how much of the DataOps capability to build and when. You know a lack of observability will hindering the data team going forward.

In this course, you will learn how to tackle these challenges by employing robust agile data warehousing design patterns.

We will equip you with the skills and patterns required to efficiently design, integrate, and manage complex data warehouses.

Once you have mastered these AgileData patterns and practises, you will gain confidence in your ability to support growing data needs and complex data problems, leading to simply magical delivery of the data work.

AgileData Coach

Creator of the Information Product Canvas, 10+ years coaching data and analytics teams

I have spent over 10 years coaching data and analytics teams on how to combine agile, product and data patterns to craft their own ways of working.

When coaching teams I often train them on common patterns that help them solve specific problems.

One of those patterns I have created and iterated over the last 10 years is using the Information Product Canvas as a way of repeatably gathering data requirements using a shared language.

This pattern has been iterated in conjunction with teams and companies of all sizes and shapes. It really is a thing of beauty.

I have spent over 30 years working in the data and analytics domain, and in a myriad of roles, but we won’t talk about that.
