In our continuous Data Vault Friday series, our CEO Michael Olschimke delves into a compelling question presented by a member of our audience.
“Is it a good idea to create a HUB for an ‘opposite side Account’? Or perhaps, should we take it a step further and explore the possibility of merging the ‘opposite side Account’ with HUB_ACCOUNT? If so, how do we handle the diversity of IBAN formats across different countries? Is it practical to have accounts from all over the world within our HUB_ACCOUNT?”
In this informative video, Michael addresses the intricacies of data modeling, specifically concerning the creation of a HUB for the ‘opposite side Account.’ He discusses the potential advantages and challenges associated with merging this entity with HUB_ACCOUNT. Furthermore, Michael offers insights into navigating the complexities of different IBAN formats in a global context, weighing the considerations of including accounts from diverse geographical regions within a unified HUB.
For those grappling with decisions around global data integration and HUB design, Michael’s responses in this video offer valuable guidance and considerations.
