Introduction to Data Mesh: A Paradigm Shift in Analytical Data Management with Zhamak Dehghani
In this session, Zhamak Dehghani gives a high-level overview of the Data Mesh concept, which proposes architectural and organizational changes that transform the way large enterprises analyze data.

Data platforms based on the data lake architecture have common failure modes that lead to unfulfilled promises at scale. To address these failure modes we need to shift from the centralized paradigm of a lake, or its predecessor data warehouse. We need to shift to a paradigm that draws from modern distributed architecture: considering domains as the first-class concern, applying platform thinking to create self-serve data infrastructure, and treating data as a product.
