Data Modeling and Design
Creating Effective Data Models for Better Decision-Making
Data Modelling and Design involve the process of defining and analysing data structures that support business operations and analytics. By establishing clear data models, organizations can ensure data integrity, consistency, and accessibility. This foundational step is crucial for effective data management, enabling businesses to extract valuable insights and drive strategic decisions.
Key Features of Data Models
Data models are critical for organizing and structuring information, allowing organizations to understand and manage their data effectively. Different types of data models serve various purposes in the data architecture process.
Core Categories of Data Models
Conceptual Data Models
High-level data requirements and relationships without technical details.
Logical Data Models
Detail data elements and their relationships, independent of technology specifics.
Physical Data Models
Specify actual data structures, including tables and data types for a database system.
