Data Mesh

Data Mesh in Practice:
Data to the People

In the data scene there was no way around this topic in the past years:
Data Mesh. At its core Data Mesh gives the data back to the people who created the data. Companies such as HelloFresh, Zalando, adidas and Delivery Hero successfully use the concept as the foundation for their data management. For companies for which data and its use represent a strategic advantage, Data Mesh is the solution to leverage data potential on a large scale. The focus is on scaling the use of data.

What is Data Mesh?

Data Mesh is a new approach or strategy for data management. Important building blocks of this approach are the decentralisation of data and the understanding that data are strategic assets. Data Mesh is an answer to central data teams that reach their limits at a certain point: decreasing innovation rates, increasing time-to-market, general frustration regarding data quality and availability. Data Mesh builds on the concept of Domain Driven Design by Eric Evans and extends it to include the aspect of data. 

Founder Zhamak Dhegani aptly summarises Data Mesh: "Data Mesh is not just an architecture, it is not just a technology, it is not just an organisational change, it is all of the above. It's a paradigm shift in the way we manage Big Data at different levels."
