Leverage the agility of universal modeling techniques through real-world examples and SQL templates using Snowflake's unique objects and featuresKey FeaturesLearn core modeling techniques tied to practical examples using native Snowflake architectureAdopt a universal modeling language to communicate business value to functional teamsGo beyond physical modeling with SQL recipes to transform and shape your Snowflake dataBook DescriptionThe Snowflake Data Cloud is one of the fastest-growing platforms for data warehousing and application workloads. Snowflake's scalable, cloud-native architecture and expansive set of features and objects enables you to deliver data solutions quicker than ever before.Yet, we must ensure that these solutions are developed using recommended design patterns and accompanied by documentation that's easily accessible to everyone in the organization.This book will help you get familiar with simple and practical data modeling frameworks that accelerate agile design and evolve with the project from concept to code. These universal principles have helped guide database design for decades, and this book pairs them with unique Snowflake-native objects and examples like never before – giving you a two-for-one crash course in theory as well as direct application.By the end of this Snowflake book, you'll have learned how to leverage Snowflake's innovative features, such as time travel, zero-copy cloning, and change-data-capture, to create cost-effective, efficient designs through time-tested modeling principles that are easily digestible when coupled with real-world examples.What you will learnDiscover the time-saving benefits and applications of data modelingLearn about Snowflake's cloud-native architecture and its featuresUnderstand and apply modeling techniques using Snowflake objectsUniversal modeling concepts and language through Snowflake objectsGet comfortable reading and transforming semistructured dataLearn directly with pre-built recipes and examplesLearn to apply modeling frameworks from Star to Data VaultWho this book is forThis book is for developers working with SQL who are looking to build a strong foundation in modeling best practices and gain an understanding of where they can be effectively applied to save time and effort. Whether you're an ace in SQL logic or starting out in database design, this book will equip you with the practical foundations of data modeling to guide you on your data journey with Snowflake. Developers who've recently discovered Snowflake will be able to uncover its core features and learn to incorporate them into universal modeling frameworks.Table of ContentsUnlocking the Power of ModelingAn Introduction to the Four Modeling TypesMastering Snowflake's ArchitectureMastering Snowflake ObjectsSpeaking Modeling through Snowflake ObjectsSeeing Snowflake's Architecture through Modeling NotationPutting Conceptual Modeling into PracticePutting Logical Modeling into PracticeDatabase NormalizationDatabase Naming and StructurePutting Physical Modeling into PracticePutting Transformational Modeling into PracticeModeling Slowly Changing DimensionsModeling Facts for Rapid AnalysisModeling Semi-Structured DataModeling HierarchiesScaling Data Models through Modern TechniquesAppendix
