Data is in every industry, but how you work with your data affects to what degree it can benefit your company. Connecting data from different data sources can be a challenge. Which customer data is leading? How can we improve the performance of our reports? Based on what information was this decision made?

A Data Warehouse stores current and historical data in one central point. Operational data is uploaded and distributed throughout the different data warehouse layers. Each layer has its own key function. Different tools can be used to create a data warehouse, and it can be created on site or in the cloud.

Data Warehouse Testing
Either you are working with Data Vault 2.0 or Kimball, every system has their own guidelines. These guidelines can be checked manually case-by-case during a peer review with a team of developers. But taking time to automate the tests can save time and increase the quality of the code in the long run.
