What is this book about?

While on her semantic modelling journey, Ilaria Maresi (Data engineer, The Hyve) encountered a range of challenges. There was not one deﬁnite source where she could quickly look things up, many of the resources were extremely technical and geared towards a more experienced audience, while others were too wishy-washy. Therefore, she decided to put together this 50-page document where she explains the most useful lessons-learned in her engaging and down-to-earth writing style.
