Data Mesh in Action
Discover the newest paradigm in the data world and see how your company can benefit from it.
Data Mesh is a relatively new concept that was one of the fastest-growing trends during 2020. It extends the paradigm shift that was introduced by the microservices architectures and applies it to data architectures, enabling agile and scalable analytics and machine learning or artificial intelligence.
Data Mesh provides an alternative to the “centralized” organizational and architectural pattern of the data lake with a distributed and decentralized architecture that's designed to help enterprises to:
Enable agility and business scalability
Reduce the time-to-market of the business initiatives
Lower maintenance costs
Allow a fair and transparent internal cost allocation.
Data Mesh is a journey that doesn't always start from 0. Many enterprise already have pieces in place that could contribute to a successful Data Mesh architecture. Before putting the pieces together, you have to know where you're at in your Data Mesh journey. Find out today, with the Data Mesh Readiness Assessment.
Witboost: Data Mesh Enabler
Discover Witboost also as an enabler of Data Mesh architectures, thanks to its technology agnostic design and close adherence to the four pillars of the Data Mesh paradigm. Discover how Witboost can help you implement Data Mesh faster, following the paradigm's pillars below:

White Paper
The Practical Guide to Data Mesh Implementations
This whitepaper explores how businesses can identify, avoid, and solve the most common obstacles for scaling a successful Data Mesh initiative.
It also covers how Witboost helps an organization solve these challenges, maintain a technology-agnostic approach and embrace all the core Data Mesh principles for a functional Data Mesh implementation delivered faster and with lower risk than other approaches.
Starting with the gradual implementation to demonstrate its potential and quick time-to-market and ending with consolidation across many years, organizations can use this 3-phased approach to implementing Data Mesh and assessing its value by themselves.
