Gartner – Logical Data Warehouse
“Adopt the Logical Data Warehouse Architecture to Meet Your Modern Analytical Needs”. Henry Cook, Gartner April 2018
DATA VIRTUALIZATION

12.
Gartner, Adopt the Logical Data Warehouse Architecture to Meet Your Modern Analytical Needs, May 2018
“When designed properly, Data Virtualization can speed data integration, lower
data latency, offer flexibility and reuse, and reduce data sprawl across
dispersed data sources.
Due to its many benefits, Data Virtualization is often the first step for organizations
evolving a traditional, repository-style data warehouse into a Logical Architecture”

Modern, Agile Data Architecture
Abstracts access to disparate
data sources
Acts as a single repository
(virtual)
Makes data available in
real-time to consumers

The Data Scientist Workflow
A typical workflow for a data scientist is:
1. Gather the requirements for the business problem
2. Identify useful data
▪ Ingest data
3. Cleanse data into a useful format
4. Analyze data
5. Prepare input for your algorithms
6. Execute data science algorithms (ML, AI, etc.)
▪ Iterate steps 2 to 6 until valuable insights are produced
7. Visualize and share
