After all, I am very happy to be a speaker at this year's Data Modeling Zone in Düsseldorf. Again, like at the Global Data Summit, I'm talking about one of my favorite topics: Temporal data in the data warehouse, especially in connection with data vault and dimensional modeling.

Data Modeling Zone Europe

Do you want to learn something about data modelling with Steve Hoberman? You want to explore new methods like Data Vault 2.0, Anchor Modeling, Data Design, DMBOK and many more? E.g. a keynote where Dan Linstedt, Lars Rönnbäck and Hans Hultgren talks together, and another one with Bill Inmon?

This year’s European Data Modeling Zone (DMZ) will take place at the wonderful German capital Berlin and I’m very happy to be again speaker at this great event! This year I’ll speak about how to start with a conceptual model, using a logical model and finally how to model the physical Data Vault. During this session we will do some exercises (no, no push-ups!!) to bring our brains up and running about modeling.

As already mentioned in my previous blogpost I will give a talk at the first day of the Data Modeling Zone 2017 about temporal data in the data warehouse.

Another interesting talk will take place on the third day of the DMZ 2017: Martijn Evers will give a full day session about Full Scale Data Architects.

Ahead of this session there will be a Kickoff Event sponsored by I-Refact, data42morrow and TEDAMOH: At 6 pm on Tuesday, 24. October, after the second day of the Data Modeling Zone 2017, all interested people can meet up and join the launch of the German chapter of Full Scale Data Architects.

I was at the Data Modeling Zone Europe 2016 in Berlin as a speaker. It was the 4^th Data Modeling Zone in Europe and in my opinion one of the best per the conference program and the interesting and awesome chats with other speakers and attendees. This year’s venue was the Abion Hotel in Berlin, situated next to the Spreebogen and for this a great environment around the venue.

Ich möchte euch über die Highlights auf der diesjährigen Data Modeling Zone in Hannover berichten. Wie schon geschrieben, fand diese am 23./24. September statt.

Sonntag – Abendessen mit den Sprechern

Am Vorabend zur Data Modeling Zone gab es auf persönliche Einladung von Christian Hädrich ein Abendessen gemeinsam mit den Sprechern.

Für mich eine tolle Gelegenheit Dan Linstedt (Erfinder des Data Vault), Steve Hoberman (Veranstalter der DMZ US und EU sowie Autor von Data Modeling Made Simple), John Giles (Autor von The Nimble Elephant: Agile Delivery of Data Models using a Pattern-based Approach), Peter Alons (Seine BI-Projekte wurden mit Preisen ausgezeichnet), George McGeachie (uk.linkedin.com/in/georgemcgeachie Co-Autor von Data Modeling Made Simple with PowerDesigner)kennen zu lernen und mit Martijn Evers (Direktor des MATTER Ausbildungsprogramm, Präsident der holländischen Data Vault User Group) und vielen mehr, die ich bereits in der Vergangenheit kennen lernen durfte, zu sprechen.

Ein toller Abend!

Die Data Modeling Zone Europe 2014 ist zu Ende. Es waren zwei ereignisreiche Tage mit großartigen Sprechern und einem vollen Programm. In vier Tracks referierten namhafte Sprecher wie Dan Linstedt, Ronald Damhof, Martijn Evers, Karen Lopez und Rich van der Lans über Themen der Datenmodellierung, Big Data oder auch Industrie Datenmodelle.

Past, present and future, where did I speak and where will I speak at conferences?

Since my calendar fills up more and more with presentations at conferences I'll give you a summary to keep track on it. Some of them are already confirmed, for others I've submitted my abstracts but yet not confirmed.
