Universal Data Modeling

Most data professionals work with multiple datasets scattered across teams, systems, and formats. But without a clear modeling strategy, the result is often chaos: mismatched schemas, fragile pipelines, and a constant fight to make sense of the noise. This essential guide offers a better way by introducing a practical framework for designing high-quality data models that work across platforms while supporting the growing demands of AI, analytics, and real-time systems. Author Jun Shan bridges the gap between disconnected modeling approaches and the need for a unified, system-agnostic methodology. Whether you're building a new data platform or rethinking legacy infrastructure, Universal Data Modeling gives you the clarity, patterns, and tools to model data that's consistent, resilient, and ready to scale. Connect conceptual, logical, and physical modeling phases with confidence Apply best-fit techniques across relational, semistructured, and NoSQL formats Improve data quality, clarity, and maintainability across your organization Support modern design paradigms like data mesh and data products Translate domain knowledge into models that empower teams Build flexible, scalable models that stand the test of technology change

Relational SQL databases remain the winner when it comes to optimal and structured data storage and management. However, as data storage needs become more complex, especially with the rise of AI, NoSQL databases are making waves. NoSQL (Not-Only-SQL) is a powerful alternative, excelling at handling large volumes of unstructured, non-relational data and offering flexible data structures for ever-evolving schemas. In this session, we will explore the basics and core concepts of different types of NoSQL databases, such as document stores, key-value stores, and graph databases. We’ll discuss the ideal use cases and best practices for each store, their unique strengths, and how they compare to traditional relational databases in various scenarios. We will also cover practical examples, such as using graph databases for more efficient retrieval in AI applications, or leveraging document stores for storing and querying raw logs. By the end of the session, attendees will be equipped with the knowledge required to implement NoSQL data storage in Azure, as well as being able to make informed decisions about when and where to implement NoSQL databases. While NoSQL is not always the answer, choosing the right data store will always ensure scalability and performance for your data solutions.

Metadata management is a cornerstone of effective data governance, yet it presents unique challenges distinct from traditional data engineering. At scale, efficiently extracting metadata from relational and NoSQL databases demands specialized solutions. To address this, our team has developed custom Airflow operators that scan and extract metadata across various database technologies, orchestrating 100+ production jobs to ensure continuous and reliable metadata collection. Now, we’re expanding beyond databases to tackle non-traditional data sources such as file repositories and message queues. This shift introduces new complexities, including processing structured and unstructured files, managing schema evolution in streaming data, and maintaining metadata consistency across heterogeneous sources. In this session, we’ll share our approach to building scalable metadata scanners, optimizing performance, and ensuring adaptability across diverse data environments. Attendees will gain insights into designing efficient metadata pipelines, overcoming common pitfalls, and leveraging Airflow to drive metadata governance at scale.

Delta and Databricks as a Performant Exabyte-Scale Application Backend

The Delta Lake architecture promises to provide a single, highly functional, and high-scale copy of data that can be leveraged by a variety of tools to satisfy a broad range of use cases. To date, most use cases have focused on interactive data warehousing, ETL, model training, and streaming. Real-time access is generally delegated to costly and sometimes difficult-to-scale NoSQL, indexed storage, and domain-specific specialty solutions, which provide limited functionality compared to Spark on Delta Lake. In this session, we will explore the Delta data-skipping and optimization model and discuss how Capital One leveraged it along with Databricks photon and Spark Connect to implement a real-time web application backend. We’ll share how we built a highly-functional and performant security information and event management user experience (SIEM UX) that is cost effective.

For our 200th episode, we bring you a special guest and taking a walk down memory lane—to the creation and development of one of the most popular programming languages in the world. Don Chamberlin is renowned as the co-inventor of SQL (Structured Query Language), the predominant database language globally, which he developed with Raymond Boyce in the mid-1970s. Chamberlin's professional career began at IBM Research in Yorktown Heights, New York, following a summer internship there during his academic years. His work on IBM's System R project led to the first SQL implementation and significantly advanced IBM’s relational database technology. His contributions were recognized when he was made an IBM Fellow in 2003 and later a Fellow of the Computer History Museum in 2009 for his pioneering work on SQL and database architectures. Chamberlin also contributed to the development of XQuery, an XML query language, as part of the W3C, which became a W3C Recommendation in January 2007. Additionally, he holds fellowships with ACM and IEEE and is a member of the National Academy of Engineering. In the episode, Richie and Don explore his early career at IBM and the development of his interest in databases alongside Ray Boyce, the database task group (DBTG), the transition to relational databases and the early development of SQL, the commercialization and adoption of SQL, how it became standardized, how it evolved and spread via open source, the future of SQL through NoSQL and SQL++ and much more.  Links Mentioned in the Show: The first-ever journal paper on SQL.
