Data Modeling Fundamentals

Data Modeling Fundamentals - Course

This comprehensive course takes learners on a complete journey through the world of data modeling, from foundational concepts to advanced techniques.

Beginning with an introduction to data and key elements like entities, attributes, and relationships, the course explores essential modeling methods including conceptual, logical, and physical designs.

The course dives deep into modern data modeling topics such as dimensional modeling for data warehousing, big data environments, NoSQL structures, and modeling for the cloud.

Special focus is given to data integrity, governance, metadata management, and performance optimization. Learners will also explore cutting-edge areas like AI-driven modeling, data lakes, semantic modeling, and modeling within Agile and DevOps workflows.

By the end of the course, learners will be able to confidently design, manage, and optimize data models using industry-standard tools, apply best practices across various data environments, and build complete, efficient data models tailored to real-world business scenarios.
