How to Design, Build, and Manage Data Contracts
Data contracts are a very important requirement for collaboration across the data mesh. However, they are a very new concept in the industry and there are no out-of-the-box solutions or products available to build and maintain data contracts. As a result, it becomes one of the most challenging parts of data mesh design and implementation. It’s one of those situations where you know what it is but you don’t know where to start.
In this chapter, we will discuss how you can design, plan, and implement data contracts for your data mesh.
In this chapter, we will cover the following questions:
- What are data contracts?
- What is the content of a data contract?
- Who creates and owns a data contract?
