An over $1500 value! \;\n \;\nSummary \;\nWe l ive in a world of Big Data\, trying to make sense of it to deliver Busin ess Intelligence. We have the promise of NOSQL and Applied Data Science to deliver some solutions. In dealing with today's challenges we need so me new and different ways of thinking. Do we still need Conceptual model s? How do they continue to benefit us? What are the limitations of rela tional models\, and how do we overcome them? What are the best strategie s for preparing and presenting data model diagrams to support meaningful conversations with our business partners? How do our data modeling too ls help? How is the data warehouse environment evolving? Are we beyond dimensional models? How do we work with NOSQL tools and schema-less data bases? Do these environments still need data modeling? What is a Data L ake and how do we manage it? \;\n \;\nDr. Gordon Everest will expl ore these questions and provide some insight for dealing with issues sur rounding the role of data modeling in the world we live in today. His p resentation will provide some new strategies and approaches. His presen tations are always lively and will challenge our thinking. \;\n \; \nPRESENTATION OUTLINE \;\n \;\n \;\nDATA MODELING – Beyond the basics\, and beyond relational \;\nADVANCED DATA MODELING CONCEPTS A ND CONSTRUCTS \;\nNORMALIZATION – Myths.
