Imagine a
beach ball

16.
Those colors
are the
components
of your data
system.

17.
Get Close

18.
Closer

19.
Closer
Still

20.
That is a lot
of green!

21.
This is our
view when we
start, right?
Tactical
In the weeds

22.
Then you
might branch
out into
orange

23.
and yellow

24.
But that’s all
it is,
a series of
colors.

It’s not until
much later
that you start
to see the
whole picture.

26.
It’s a beach ball.
It functions.
It helps you play
games.

27.
It’s likely it will
not look like
this though.

28.
It likely looks
like this.

29.
There are
holes.

30.
And some
parts weren’t
built to get
bigger.

31.
Well dang,
that doesn’t
hold air.
