Abstract

This chapter dives into business drivers and pain points that we hear in our conversations with enterprises. The business benefits of creating a Data Fabric architecture and also implementing a Data Mesh solution are discussed from the perspective of the technical, primarily data engineering team as well as the business teams consuming the data. We discuss a needed cultural shift related to managing data in an organization that looks at holistic data ownership of data source owners, data engineers, and data consumers.
