About Data Vault 2.0

The Data Vault 2.0 System of Business Intelligence represents a major evolution of the already successful Data Vault architecture and Certus Solutions is the only registered Data Vault 2.0 training partner in ANZ.

Since its launch in 2013, Data Vault 2.0 has been increasingly adopted as a best practice standard for data warehousing and is fully applicable to Big Data deployments.

Companies including Telstra, Audi, Lockheed, Vodafone and Tesco have already implemented automated data warehousing using Data Vault, allowing them to answer business users’ questions in hours and days instead of weeks and months, while lowering risk and reducing total cost of ownership.

Speed, flexibility and accuracy are the key advantages as you reduce the deployment time of a new data warehouse and, perhaps more importantly, dramatically reduce business logic implementation cycles.

This is important because it underpins critical business philosophies such as Agile IT development and Six Sigma continual process improvement.

With greater flexibility comes the ability to incorporate changes quickly, without affecting the existing architecture, thereby reducing the need for shadow or bi-modal IT teams.

Data accuracy is critical to business success and Data Vault 2.0 allows you to create trust in your data warehouse as a true system of record; giving you the confidence to implement a data-driven business strategy.

  • A data strategy capable of scaling to hundreds of Terabytes or Petabytes

Why Data Vault 2.0

Data Vault is a system of data warehousing and business intelligence that is comprised of three major components: the Data Vault Model, the Data Vault Methodology and the Data Vault Systems Architecture.While Data Vault (now DV1.0) was revolutionary on its own and has been extremely successful in the past, it was essentially focused on data modelling and is now outdated. Data Vault 2.0 takes it to the next level as a complete System of Business Intelligence... and it supports NoSQL too. Data Vault 2.0 brings improvements in the following areas.

DATA VAULT 1.0 DATA VAULT 2.0
Purely a modelling certification – DV Modeler. Focused on agility, process, methodology, design, architecture and the deployment of DV – DV Practitioner.
