Data Mesh: Federated Computational Governance

Data Mesh is a paradigm shift from centralized data management to a decentralized system, emphasizing federated computational governance as a core principle to balance domain autonomy with global standards. This governance model delineates responsibilities between domain-specific and centralized IT functions, ensuring that data governance aspects like security, compliance, availability, quality, and provenance are effectively managed. In this setup, domains have autonomy over data quality and provenance, while centralized IT handles broader governance aspects like inter-domain standards and authentication. The model encourages collaboration through a cross-domain governance council, fostering shared responsibility and agility in adapting to compliance and standard changes. Starburst supports this model by providing tools for secure and efficient data management without excessive replication, facilitating governance through integration with various data catalogs and lineage products.
