Implementing Data Mesh

Part III. GenAI, Teams, Operating Model, and Roadmap for Data Mesh

Once you have a basic Data Mesh in place, how do you successfully use generative AI (GenAI) and set up the teams, operating model, and roadmap required to establish, nurture, and grow your Data Mesh? This part details the processes for making data products discoverable, observable, and secure to foster a more agile and efficient data ecosystem; proposes a dynamic platform for data discovery and sharing while minimizing metadata duplication; explains decentralized, agile governance through self-serve capabilities and certification; describes creating efficient “data product factories”; explores how combining Data Mesh with GenAI enhances decision making; focuses on the sociotechnical aspects of implementation; outlines a decentralized, domain-centric approach; and provides a structured, multistream plan for implementation.

Chapter 9, “Running and Operating Your Data Mesh”, explores how to make data products discoverable, observable, and secure, highlighting the dynamic nature of data within Data Mesh, the crucial interfaces and processes involved in ensuring seamless operation, and the opportunities for enhanced data management through standardization and self-serve capabilities, all of which ultimately foster a more agile and efficient data ecosystem.

Chapter 10, “Creating a Data Mesh Marketplace”, addresses the challenge of finding data products in a growing Data Mesh ecosystem by proposing a Data Mesh Marketplace, ...
