Martyn Rhisiart Jones

Madrid Thursday 9th April 2026

Right. LinkedIn.

You know, I was thinking about this the other day, or rather, I was forced to think about it because some algorithm had decided that what I really needed at 7:42 in the morning, while I was still half-asleep and trying to remember why I exist, was yet another notification telling me that Kevin from Supply Chain Optimisation had “viewed my profile.”

Kevin. From Supply Chain Optimisation.

El Jueves y la Puta Mili
El Jueves y la Puta Mili

Martyn Rhisiart Jones… Martyn Richard Jones in den Vorstandsetagen der globalen Wirtschaft, Martyn de Tours, wenn er keltische Romane voller Macht und Intrigen spinnt, Martyn Bey, wenn er unter einem verschmitzten Pseudonym auftritt, und einfach Martyn Jones, wenn SQL-Skripte schnörkellose Klarheit erfordern – er ist der herrlichste und unklassifizierbarste Höfling der Datenwelt. Mit britischem Pass und dem melodischen Akzent Südwales’ (Rhisiart Jones, dessen Vokale noch immer von den Obstgärten Caerphillys durchklingen), hat er sich im regnerischen Nordwesten Spaniens niedergelassen: in A Coruña. Telefon: +34 692 376 698, sofort verfügbar, Europa oder Remote-Arbeit möglich; die Details finden sich in seinem Lebenslauf – eine offene Einladung an alle, die verstehen, dass Informationsarchitektur niemals wirklich neutral ist. Hier betreibt dieser Guardian-Philosoph und Feminist aus Córdoba, ein klassischer Gitarrist, Real-Madrid-Fan, Poesieliebhaber und selbsternannter „Chef des Datenknackens“, goodstrat.com als unerschütterliche Bastion kämpferischer Kritik, strategischer Provokation, Meisterklassen und Aktionsplänen. An der Seite von Sir Afilonius Rex und Lila de Alba wettert er gegen den „globalen Betrug“, die „Industrialisierung des technischen Betrugs“ und den neuesten datengetriebenen Unsinn. Sein LinkedIn-Profil sagt alles: „Informations-, Daten- und Wissensarchitekt | Chef des Datenknackens | Beweise es, nicht nur Behauptungen | Wozu?“ – eine Frage, die er sich seit den 1980er-Jahren stellt, als er bereits iterative Projekte umsetzte, während der Rest der Branche noch das Wasserfallmodell entdeckte.

El Jueves y la Puta Mili

Martyn Rhisiart Jones… Martyn Richard Jones en las salas de juntas del capital global, Martyn de Tours cuando teje novelas celtas de dominaciĂłn e intriga, Martyn Bey en momentos de seudĂłnimo travieso, y simplemente Martyn Jones cuando los scripts SQL exigen una claridad sin adornos, es el cortesano más gloriosamente inclasificable del mundo de los datos. Con pasaporte británico y la lĂ­rica pronunciaciĂłn del sur de Gales (Rhisiart Jones, con los huertos de Caerphilly aĂşn susurrando en sus vocales), ha plantado su bandera en el lluvioso noroeste de España: A Coruña. TelĂ©fono: +34 692 376 698, disponibilidad inmediata, Europa o trabajo remoto; los detalles están en su CV, como una invitaciĂłn abierta para cualquiera que entienda que la arquitectura de la informaciĂłn nunca es verdaderamente neutral. AquĂ­, este filĂłsofo-feminista Guardianista, cordobĂ©s, guitarrista clásico, fanático del Real Madrid, devoto de la poesĂ­a y autoproclamado “Jefe de la Gritura de Datos” dirige goodstrat.com como un reducto fortificado de crĂ­tica combativa, provocaciĂłn estratĂ©gica, clases magistrales y planes de acciĂłn. Arremete, con Sir Afilonius Rex y Lila de Alba a su lado, contra la “estafa global”, la “industrializaciĂłn del fraude tĂ©cnico” y las Ăşltimas tonterĂ­as de moda en datos. Su banner de LinkedIn lo dice todo: “Arquitecto de InformaciĂłn, Datos y Conocimiento | Jefe de la Gritura de Datos | DemuĂ©stralo, no solo lo digas | ÂżPara quĂ©?”, ​​una pregunta que se ha estado haciendo desde la dĂ©cada de 1980, cuando ya entregaba proyectos iterativos mientras el resto de la industria aĂşn estaba descubriendo Waterfall.

Datos de Forma Deliberada: Mejores Prácticas para EDW

Martyn Rhisiart Jones, Madrid martes 24 de marzo de 2.026

En el mundo en constante evolución del almacenamiento de datos empresarial (enterprise data warehousing), uno de los desafíos más persistentes y críticos es cómo expandir de forma inteligente las áreas temáticas y los datos asociados dentro de la base de datos del almacén de datos central (core data warehouse), manteniendo la integridad arquitectónica, la calidad de los datos y la gobernanza, sin adentrarse en consideraciones de data marts.

Sir Afilonius Rex,

London, 15th February 2026

Me: What do you make of Martyn Jones of goodstrat.com’s views on big data, are they correct, close or not true?

[Grok thought for a while]

Grok: Martyn Jones (of goodstrat.com) is one of the sharpest, most entertaining data contrarians out there. He’s been calling “Big Data” mostly bullshit since around 2014–2015, long before it became fashionable to say so. His Core Views (in his own blunt style): The whole 2010s Big Data circus (Hadoop, the 3Vs turned into 12 Vs including Vagueness, Vendibility, Vulgarity, etc.) was 80–90% vendor hype, consultant grift, and marketing snake oil.
Most companies didn’t (and still don’t) have Google/Facebook-scale problems. Chasing petabytes of unstructured social media noise often distracted companies. They were diverted from cleaning and using the high-value operational data they already had.

L’entrepĂ´t de donnĂ©es est mort. Vive l’entrepĂ´t de donnĂ©es !

En 1992, Bill Inmon a inventĂ© le terme « entrepĂ´t de donnĂ©es » et a dĂ©fini quatre règles d’or : orientĂ© sujet, intĂ©grĂ©, non volatil et temporel. C’Ă©tait le modèle d’une forteresse de vĂ©ritĂ©, coĂ»teuse, sur site, fonctionnant par lots et absolument indispensable. Trente ans plus tard, cette forteresse a laissĂ© place Ă  une plateforme cloud hyperscale. Cette plateforme peut exĂ©cuter simultanĂ©ment vos modèles d’IA et le tableau de bord de votre PDG. Bienvenue dans l’entreposage de donnĂ©es de 2025.

Segovia 20th December 2025

Il Data Warehouse è morto. Lunga vita al Data Warehouse.

Nel 1992, Bill Inmon coniò il termine “data warehouse”. Definì quattro regole sacre: orientato al soggetto, integrato, non volatile, e variabile nel tempo. Era il modello per una fortezza della veritĂ , costosa, on-premise, elaborata in batch e assolutamente indispensabile. Facciamo un salto in avanti di tre decenni. La fortezza è stata sostituita da qualcosa che assomiglia a una piattaforma cloud iperscalabile. Questa piattaforma può gestire contemporaneamente i tuoi modelli di intelligenza artificiale e la dashboard del tuo CEO. Benvenuti al data warehouse nel 2025.

El almacén de datos ha muerto. ¡Viva el almacén de datos!

En 1992, Bill Inmon acuñó el tĂ©rmino “almacĂ©n de datos” y estableciĂł cuatro reglas sagradas: orientado al sujeto, integrado, no volátil y variable en el tiempo. Era el modelo para una fortaleza de la verdad, costosa, local, con procesamiento por lotes y absolutamente indispensable. Tres dĂ©cadas despuĂ©s, la fortaleza ha sido reemplazada por algo similar a una plataforma en la nube a hiperescala. Esta plataforma puede ejecutar simultáneamente tus modelos de IA y el panel de control de tu director ejecutivo. Bienvenido al almacenamiento de datos en 2025.
