Data Warehouse Use Case

Christ — Tue, 21 Apr 2026 08:02:48 GMT

Hi,

I have a background in traditional data warehousing (SQL, 3NF Inmon, Star schema Kimball). I used to design data models then create it in a SQL RDMS and then populate it with ETL data flows. Paying a particular attention to slowly changing dimensions.

With Cloudera, how to build the equivalent of a data warehouse? and which feeding treatments? What are the components to use?

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. It looks to me interesting but does not tell about best practices of architecture and data modeling. For example, it would be great to add a diagram in your documentation illustrating architecture: components used from data ingestion to data consumption with related technologies.

HI @Christ

If you'd like more details about data model design and implementing them using Cloudera Data Warehouse over and above the documentation @shehbazk provided links to, I'd recommend you watch the recording of a webinar Cloudera held on the topic quite some time ago, Data Modeling for Hadoop and the subsequent blog post Common Questions on Data Modeling for Big Data.
