Data Mesh has become very popular in recent years. It's a highly decentralized approach that helps data teams to utilize domain knowledge in an efficient way. However, it has its own challenges when it comes to Governance and Metadata Management. How do you make data products understandable across domains? Is there a way to ensure accessibility and interoperability? And how do you make sense of decentralized data in the bigger picture? I believe data modeling can be a clear solution for many of the Data Meshes challenges.

We need to rethink how to apply this well-tested method in a modern architecture - bringing business context to the forefront. Join my talk and let's explore data modeling in the age of the mesh!

What You'll Learn:

• Learn about the pros and cons of Data Mesh.

• Understand how to solve governance challenges by making data products business-friendly.
• Ensure that Data Mesh is aligned with your business goals
• Rethink how to use data modeling in the modern age.
