Data warehousing expert Hans Hultgren.

Hans Hultgren, a world-renown data warehousing, big data, blockchain and business intelligence (BI) educator, author, trainer, and advisor, will be presenting at the ITWeb Business Intelligence and Analytics Summit 2018 on 14 March.

Hultgren, who will be presenting on 'Data vault modelling for big data', will give delegates insight into how some of the barriers to achieving data warehouse agility can be overcome using the data modelling approach.

During his presentation, Hultgren will examine the data vault modelling approach as a tool in creating an agile data warehouse, and dissect the premise behind data vault - unified decomposition.

He will also discuss how a data warehouse can accept new attributes without re-engineering, and how the data vault modelling pattern is also applicable to big data, cloud, virtual and streaming deployments.
