Why your Data Warehouse is not a Data Warehouse

24. August 2016 3 Comments Tobias Maasland read

If you use Kimballs Star Schema and refer to it as your Data Warehouse, you should read on.

I know, this is a bold claim to make. And everyone who has some experience in Data Warehousing might be surprised in what I mean. But sometimes, your Data Warehouse is not a Data Warehouse. Why?

Hello. I am an agile master.an improv artist.a self-improver.a worlds traveller.

My name ist Tobias Maasland. I live and work in the beautiful city Hamburg. My passions lie in performance on stage, holding workshops in Agile Transformations, supporting organizations in their agile transformation and working in this field – with a focus on Data. I like to learn and to create. See more details in my Curriculum Vitae.

WHAT DO I DO

Agile Master

As a certified Scrum Master and certified BACK of the Room Practicioner Trainer, I support teams, management levels and organizations in their agile transformation. My main topic is resolving conflicts and providing communication strategies especially for fast-paced, short-term projects – but also for big size projects.

Big Data

I have strong experience in creating Big Data and Business Intelligence environments. This includes architecture, data extraction, data modelling and data presentation but also the integration of the environment into the business itself.

Improvisation

I play improv in Hamburg. Although this seems very far away from the other points in here, it still serves a purpose (besides in being fun): it enhances creativity and problem-solving skills.

Personal development

I love getting always a step further with knowledge and experience about myself in my life. I also like to give advice in what worked for me and what didn’t. This is also why I like to travel and did my world trip. I blogged a lot about this (in german).
