Data Mesh

Data Mesh is a decentralized approach to data management that views data as a product rather than a byproduct of operational processes. This paradigm shift emphasizes the importance of treating data with the same level of care and accountability as other products within an organization. It organizes data by domain, meaning each team or department is responsible for the lifecycle of their data products, from creation to consumption. This model promotes domain-oriented decentralized governance, self-serve data infrastructure, and product thinking, encouraging teams to build and maintain high-quality data products. By aligning data management with business domains and fostering cross-functional collaboration, Data Mesh aims to enhance scalability, agility, and overall data quality within an organization.
