Strategic Data Management: Data Mesh meets MDM.
Enabling data mesh through master data management and data as a product.
How to design and architect a modern and scalable distributed ecosystem (a data mesh) built on consolidated MDM data products?
In this session on 10.2.2022 at 10.00 – 11.00 EET, we will first clarify the concept of data as a product. We will then present in practice how traditional master data management (MDM) is ‘just another’ set of data products enabling a modern distributed data management approach. Finally, we will share our views on why an API strategy is a key enabler for making this all work.
You will learn:
- Why and how data as a product is different to data (as an) asset
- The traditional context of master data management (MDM) and data consolidation
- Why MDM is still relevant and business critical in a modern, distributed data mesh
- Why an API strategy is essential and how it enables the delivery of data products (like MDM)
This is the second part of Solita’s Strategic data management webinar series.
