Modern Data Modeling in Cloud - Data Vault & Data Mesh

Master the future of data modeling - learn Data Vault 2.0 & Data Mesh principles from an industry leader.

🎯 Workshop Overview

As organizations modernize their data ecosystems on cloud platforms like Azure, AWS, Databricks, and Snowflake, the way we design and govern data models is evolving rapidly.

Traditional star schemas and warehouses are no longer enough - modern enterprises need flexible, auditable, and domain-aligned models that power analytics, AI, and automation.

This 4-hour deep-dive workshop introduces you to two leading paradigms transforming enterprise data architecture today:
Data Vault 2.0 and Data Mesh.

You’ll learn how to combine governance, agility, and scalability in your data models along with examples drawn from real-world projects in Banking, Insurance, and Telecom.

🧩 Learning Outcomes

By the end of the session, participants will be able to:

1. Understand the evolution from traditional data warehousing to modern data platforms.

2. Explain the core principles and building blocks of Data Vault 2.0 (Hub, Link, Satellite, Business Vault).

3. Identify when to use Data Vault vs Star Schema vs 3NF.

4. Understand Data Mesh concepts : domains, data products, federated governance.

5. Map Data Vault structures into modern platforms (Azure Databricks, Snowflake, BigQuery).

6. Visualize how Data Vault integrates with Data Fabric and Data Governance frameworks.

7. Design a small Data Vault model for a business domain (hands-on mini exercise).
