Behind the Hype: Why Data Mesh Is Not Right For You

The data world swings back and forth between centralisation and decentralisation - we're currently in a swing away from the central lake-based platform, out to the new kid on the block - Data Mesh.

At Advancing Analytics, we hear from myriad clients that they're looking at implementing a mesh, or they've been advised to build one, or they're thinking that their data strategy but they're not sure where to start... and often, organisations simply aren't ready for the approach. It requires a fundamental cultural shift that isn't often talked about.

In this video-rant Simon shares his opinion as to why the Data Mesh ideal isn't for everyone, and the drivers that companies should be looking for as they set their sights on a future mesh approach.
