There are a number of Data Warehouse automation tools that promise to be the best solution to set up and maintain a Data Warehouse. However, the real distinction lies in the details.
Fortunately for you, an independent Data Vault User Group, DDVUG, has orchestrated the Data Warehouse Automation Challenge where they asked major competitors to lay their cards on the table. The showdown pits various tools against each other to surmount 13 specific problems. Think data preparation, lineage, error handling, deployment, orchestration, scheduling, and database support.
We might say we have a head start because we’ve been working for years on perfecting a low-code automation tool that is designed to solve the problems we encountered ourselves in our data integration consultancy years, sparing you the hassle. Interestingly, the same sort of problems now serve as the crucible for this competition.
Creating multi-active satellites, many-to-many links, driving keys, and hub groupings links are made easy because our graphical user interface lets you do that by simply selecting the according tags for your objects. Establishing relationships between hubs is as simple as drag and drop.
We offer agility by design. By adhering to the Data Vault standards, we support change (changing dimensions challenge) and delete management (delete business keys challenge) on full loads, but also in incremental loads. In case of any errors, all the transformation code and all the workflow DAGs generated by VaultSpeed are fully restartable, no loss of data or inconsistencies will occur. Workflows can also be partially restarted.
We extend control capabilities through export, reporting and dimension views capabilities but also by letting you create your own templates to automate quality checks or complex business calculations.
And as far as tech stack integrations go, no tool connects with more data platforms, orchestration tools, and ETL tools than VaultSpeed.
We’re going to stop here and welcome you watch the comprehensive video presentation below by Jonas De Keuster, VP of Product Marketing at VaultSpeed, from the TDWI Conference in Munich. Or alternatively, you can delve into the comparison table that clearly presents our solutions versus what competitors WhereScape or Datavault Builder propose.
