Flow.BI is a GenAI that defines an integrated enterprise data model across all attached datasets based on Data Vault. It is an attractive solution to clients for several reasons: Flow.BI imitates human data modelers while generating the integrated data model, and Michael Olschimke, a leading industry expert in the Big Data field, has developed the model definitions. In this sense, his knowledge has been codified into Flow.BI adds skills to those teams that lack skilled data modelers.
