From SQL Queries to Data Modeling

This article discusses the author's experience at Microsoft TechEd 2012, focusing on the shift from writing SQL queries to data modeling using SQL Server 2012's BI Semantic Model. It argues that as organizations grow, relying solely on SQL for reporting becomes unsustainable, and data models empower business users to create their own reports, reducing IT bottlenecks. The author highlights the importance of this paradigm shift for timely data analysis and improved query-ability.
