A few weeks back I had a great discussion with Scott Hirleman on the Data Mesh Radio podcast all about Data Contracts! I talked about why we’re doing it, where we’ve got to so far and the challenges we’ve had.
Over on the GoCardless Tech Blog I’ve written a post about how we’re improving data quality with Data Contracts. Check it out and let me know what you think!
Data is at the heart of every meaningful service, and it’s the effective use of that data which builds a product, and a business.
Almost all data platforms start with a change data capture (CDC) service to extract data from an organisations transactional databases - the source of truth for their most valuable data. That data is then transformed, joined, and aggregated to drive analysis, modelling, and other downstream services.
Want great, practical advice on implementing data mesh, data products and data contracts?
In my weekly newsletter I share with you an original post and links to what's new and cool in the world of data mesh, data products, and data contracts.
I also include a little pun, because why not? 😅
