The Data Mesh Book Club, Podcast Edition

Join us for the last episode of season 2 for the Data Mesh Book Club. Andy and Adrian will welcome Dan O’Riordan from Capgemini and Antony Prasad from AWS to discuss their perspectives on the rapid maturity in data product capabilities and how they have seen data products impact business and architecture teams. Listen to the AWS view on how data products are built on top of lakes, warehouses and fast federated query tools like Starburst. On the business side, Capgemini will talk about how data products can be used to accelerate the delivery of big business initiatives like digital transformation programs. And, as always, there will be plenty of time for Adrian and Andy to argue about something.

Dr. Arif Wider, co-writer of Data Mesh in Practice, Adrian Estala and Andy Mott dive into Max’s and Arif’s book to review their experience in implementing Data Mesh in organizations. In this first follow-up to season one of the Data Mesh Book Club series, we will discuss our own experiences and underscore some of the most important ideas presented in the Data Mesh in Practice book.
