Data Fabric and Data Mesh Approaches with AI

Abstract

This chapter walks through several use cases for implementing a Data Fabric and Data Mesh that also represent business-relevant entry points. Data governance and privacy initiatives are ongoing in almost every organization, enabling access to enterprise data and AI artefacts across platforms to the people who have a business need. Other use cases are driven by hybrid cloud data integration; the need for a comprehensive view on customers, vendors, and other parties for better business outcome; and development and integration of trustworthy AI into business processes.
