Overview

Data Products are a first-class citizen of Blindata’s Data Catalog! We are helping organizations that are implementing the Data Mesh architecture pattern to better organize, manage, and govern their data domains.

This shift to domain-oriented decentralized data ownership and architecture brings new challenges from both the organizational and technical points of view. As well as new opportunities from a data governance perspective.

Data Ownership

A paradigm shift to domain-oriented decentralized data ownership.

Data Contracts

Well defined data contracts between producers and consumers.

Discoverability

Discoverability of data assets across the organization.

Data Quality

Clear data quality & monitoring responsibilities.

Dependencies

Embedded lineage of data products of your platform by visualizing input and output port connections.

All this gives the occasion to re-engineer data governance processes: no more as an afterthought!
