  14. 163: Data Modeling Semantics

    17 november 2022 · 56 min

    Afspelen
    Based on a post on LinkedIn, arguing that data modeling has become a "second class citizen" and no longer paired with business concepts from day 1 of development. Lees meer

    We deal with this even in the Power BI world. We stare at models and columns and, usually assuming the source data has been vetted and has meaning. But what too often occurs is the lack of process around the input, organization of data (think lack of hierarchy or ambiguous product types") which ultimately kill any ability to truly supply insight.

    Who should advocate, and who needs to be involved? Link to article:

    Afspelen
    Based on a link from Paul Turley's blog (and an episode on getting your data into shape). Lees meer

    The idea behind this is observations from software engineers not delivering on time despite adding more resources, with the possibility of measuring quality work in "man-months" is a myth.

    How much of this relates to Power BI development and data integration struggles? When we are so deep in the technical specs, data management, and modeling, is the solution more BI resources?
