(General Reporting Tips) If a query refers to more than
one table, all columns should be prefixed by a
descriptor (table name or alias) - .....ANSWER ...✔✔
Using descriptors ensures you have unambiguous column
references, preventing issues that can occur when two
tables contain columns with the same name.
Chapter 1. (Study Checklist) Caboodle Console -

,2|Page
sources may load data pertaining to a single entity. This
means that more than one package may populate a
given row in a Caboodle table. As a result, there may
be multiple business key values associated with a single
entity in a Caboodle table.
Chapter 1. (Study Checklist) ETL - .....ANSWER ...✔✔
Extract, Transform, Load
Chapter 1. (Study Checklist) SSIS Package - .....ANSWER
...✔✔ The architecture of Caboodle includes a
staging database and a reporting database. Data is
extracted from source systems (like Clarity), transformed
in the staging database, and presented for users in the
reporting database. This movement of data is realized
via a set of SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS)
packages.
Chapter 1. (Study Checklist) Data Lineage - .....ANSWER
...✔✔ Generally, data lineage refers to the process
of identifying the source of a specific piece of
information. In Caboodle, data lineage is defined at the
package level.
Chapter 1. (Study Checklist) Star Schema - .....ANSWER
...✔✔ The standard schema for a dimensional data
,3|Page
model. The name refers to the image of a fact table
surrounded by many linked dimension tables, which
loosely resembles a star.
The Caboodle data model structure is based on a "star
schema" ‐ where one central fact table will join to many
associated lookup or dimension tables. This structure
provides the foundation of the Caboodle data model.
Chapter 1. (Study Checklist) DMC - .....ANSWER
...✔✔ DATA MODEL COMPONENT
No table in Caboodle "stands alone." Each is considered
part of a Data Model Component, which refers to the
collection of metadata tables that support the ETL
process and reporting views stored in the FullAccess
schema.
Each DMC gets a type. Strict table naming conventions
are followed in Caboodle, so that a table's suffix
provides information about its structure and purpose.
These suffixes are:
· Dim for dimensions (e.g. PatientDim)
· Fact for facts (e.g. EncounterFact)
· Bridge for bridges (e.g. DiagnosisBridge)
· DataMart for data marts (e.g.
HospitalReadmissionDataMart)
, 4|Page
· AttributeValueDim for EAV tables (e.g.
PatientAttributeValueDim)
· X for custom tables (e.g. CustomFactX)
Chapter 1. (Study Checklist) Staging Database -
.....ANSWER ...✔✔ The Caboodle database into
which records are loaded by SSIS packages and stored
procedures.
Chapter 1. (Study Checklist) Reporting Database -
.....ANSWER ...✔✔ The architecture of Caboodle
includes a staging database and a reporting database.
Data is extracted from source systems (like Clarity),
transformed in the staging database, and presented for
users in the reporting database. This movement of data
is realized via a set of SQL Server Integration Services
(SSIS)
packages.
Chapter 1. (Study Checklist) Dbo Schema - .....ANSWER
...✔✔ STAGING DATABASE
