Description

In this training course, we will show you what the four principles of Data Mesh mean. You will learn about the challenges of introducing data mesh and receive recommendations for a step-by-step approach. Together we will design a data product, the central element in a data mesh, using our Data Product Canvas and show you the implementation alternatives. At the end of the workshop, you will be able to evaluate the socio-technical implications of Data Mesh and design data products.

The Data Mesh concept is based on domain-oriented, decentralized data architectures and enables development teams to perform data analysis autonomously. Data Mesh is a socio-technical data architecture and is presented in the form of the following four principles:

The “domain ownership” principle assumes that domain teams take responsibility for their data. According to this principle, analytical data should be structured in domains, similar to the team boundaries that correspond to the bounded contexts. Responsibility for analytical and operational data is transferred from the central data team to the domain teams.

The principle of “data as a product” applies the philosophy of product thinking to analytical data. This principle means that there are consumers for the data beyond the domain. The domain team is responsible for satisfying the needs of other domains by providing high-quality data as data products. Basically, the domain data should be treated like any other public API.

The third principle is to apply the “platform thinking” idea to the data infrastructure. A dedicated data platform team provides domain agnostic functions, tools and systems for the creation and consumption of interoperable data products for all domains.

The principle of “Federated Computational Governance” represents cross-organizational processes for data governance. This principle achieves the interoperability of all data products through standardization determined by the governance guild. The main objective is to comply with the organizational rules and regulations of the industry.

Technical Information and Books

Data Mesh

Wir befinden uns an einem Wendepunkt im Umgang mit Daten. Unser bisheriges Datenmanagement wird den komplexen Organisationsstrukturen, den immer zahlreicheren Datenquellen und dem zunehmenden Einsatz von KI nicht mehr gerecht. Dieses praxisorientierte Buch von Zhamak Dehghani führt dich in Data Mesh ein, ein dezentrales soziotechnisches Konzept basierend auf modernen verteilten Architekturen. Data Mesh ist ein neuer Ansatz für die Beschaffung, Bereitstellung, den Zugriff und die Verwaltung analytischer Daten, der auch skaliert. Ins Deutsche übersetzt von unseren Trainern Jochen Christ und Simon Harrer.
