Configuring a Data Mart

The metadata required to build the Data Mart is similar to any other source to staging project.

For on-premises loads it is possible to use either the ETL load pattern or the ELT load pattern. For cloud-based implementations, such as using Azure Data Factory (ADF) or targeting Azure Synapse or Snowflake, BimlFlex provides an in-database ELT pattern.

Sample metadata for Data Mart load scenarios for the supported project types is included in BimlFlex.

Project Configuration

The Data Mart load pattern is configured in a separate project.

This project uses 3 main connections:

  1. Source Connection, normally the Staging layer or Data Vault layer
  2. Target Stage Connection, normally the Data Mart Layer. A staging layer for the Data Mart where delta loads are prepared before they are merged into the target. Only used for ETL patterns. ELT Stored Procedures uses internal staging.
  3. Target Connection, The Data Mart connection. The target for the Facts and Dimension loads
