Data Mesh Architecture
Decentralise Data Ownership Without Losing Governance
What we do
Centralised data teams become bottlenecks at scale. Data Mesh decentralises data ownership to the domain teams who know their data best — while maintaining federated governance so quality and standards don't degrade. We design and implement Data Mesh principles on your Azure data platform.
Ideal for
Large organisations where a central data team has become a bottleneck and domain teams need autonomy over their own data
Common applications
Domain Data Ownership Model
Define data domains aligned to your organisational structure and assign ownership, quality responsibility, and SLAs.
Data Product Design
Design the data product interface: schema, access patterns, SLA contract, and discovery metadata for each domain.
Federated Governance Layer
Implement cross-domain standards: naming conventions, quality thresholds, access policies, and a shared data catalogue.
Self-Serve Data Platform
Build the infrastructure toolkit that enables domain teams to independently create and publish data products on Azure.
Data Contract Implementation
Define and enforce data contracts between producer and consumer domains — breaking changes trigger automated alerts.
Mesh Migration Roadmap
Assess your current centralised architecture and produce a phased roadmap to Data Mesh without disrupting existing consumers.
How we work
Readiness Assessment
Evaluate your organisational structure, data platform maturity, and team incentives against Data Mesh requirements.
Domain & Platform Design
Define the domain topology, data product interface standards, and self-serve platform tooling.
Pilot Domain Implementation
Run a pilot with one data domain — prove the model before scaling to the rest of the organisation.
Scale & Govern
Expand to additional domains, establish the federated governance process, and train domain teams.
