In case you haven’t noticed, don’t know what the Data Vault is, or simply don’t believe that it can help you – I am sure that you’ll be interested in this post. I’ve just returned from the Netherlands, Germany, and Paris where I participated in a 3 city tour of interested Data Vault companies, hosted by Logica CMG.

From a business users perspective. I’ve recently written a brand new article that discusses what Business users and IT need to know before deciding to implement / mandate / pass-down the edict of developing a real-time BI solution. This article is completely free for you to download in PDF format. I would appreciate however, if you read the article that you return to comment on it here – I’d like to know what you think of the article.

There’s been a movement afoot for quite some time now, and in fact – the big wave of technology is headed into the sky, or more to the point: the clouds. I have been reading about and investigating cloud computing for quite some time now, and I am convinced that Cloud is here to stay. So why all the hype? Why is it game-changing? What about it makes it so different? Well, read on and I’ll try to share some thoughts with you.

There are too many different ETL engines to mention, but I have some opinions, and some information about these different products to share. If you have questions, this is the place to ask. Although any technical answers requiring code will be shared on my blogging site: http://danLinstedt.com – here I will speak about the technology itself.

I have the privelage of working on a couple contracts that hopefully will make peoples lives better. One program is a Data Vault for tracking patient visits, prescriptions, and events – the results of this Data Vault will feed the BI solution that allows doctors and medical professionals around the world help keep people safe, and healthy (especially when something happens to them and they have to visit a doctor that they don’t know). Another program is using a Data Vault to assist in keeping cities safe – the ability to know when to deploy law enforcement to the right place at the right time, and hopefully to assist in the reduction of crime rates by visible presence.

This is sort of a funny statement, is there really GOD in IT? I believe there is – at least He’s there in my life. Blessing me at every turn. I have been building my faith for the last 5 years at least, and I can honestly say: what took me so long?? I mean it when I say God has been at the center of my IT career all along. He has a purpose for me, what that purpose is has yet to be revealed to me.
