Introducing the activity schema: data modeling with a single table

Ahmed will present a new data modeling approach called the activity schema. It can answer any data question using a single time series table (only 11 columns and no JSON).

Instead of facts and dimensions, data is modeled as a customer doing an activity over time. This approach works for any business data used for BI.
