How to Create a 3 Layer Data Model Pipeline

May 01, 2024

A data warehouse acts as the main hub for most data teams, yet it often becomes a mess.

While there are many different strategies to handle this, in this video I want to share the approach I follow.

It's based around a simple 3-layered design to take raw source data into meaningful data marts ready for analytics.

The main things we'll cover include: 

  1. A high level pipeline overview (source to analytics)
  2. A simple example of each layer (staging, warehouse & marts)
  3. The importance of data modeling, even on modern DBs

Enjoy!
