Hello,
I am trying to understand better where timeliness dimension can be applied with all the possible case scenarios. The documentation explains about the configuration of the dimension but with no real time examples. Could you please help with some use cases from the real world?
For something like below , what do we need to take into consideration when implementing the rule?
| Attribute must be updated Daily ; effective date= Today-1. Load dates are Sun-Sat excluding Holidays. |
When running timeliness rules, it is mainly there to ensure that data is loaded at the agreed time for downstream consumers to be able to consume said data. If a data set is supposed to load with x amount of records every single day at 8 am, a timeliness rule would be applied and ran everyday on that table at 8 to ensure that the data has met its service level agreement. This can also be adjusted for weekly, monthly, so on data loads.
This is more important for any aggregations across multiple tables and data sets that are used in downstream calculations, and can help diagnose why there was an error in calculations downstream
