Attendees will gain a comprehensive understanding of the Data Mesh and its implications for modern data-driven organizations.

20:40 - 21:20 - Kimberly Schmitt et al. // Collaborative Engineering Driven Data Product Development on AWS
Delivering data as a product is an outcome that many companies work to realize. Kimberly and her team are working towards making this a reality through their creation of a new B2B-based data architecture. They will share the identified requirements and challenges, their incremental delivery process, and efforts to craft this fully programmable product based on AWS services.
The team continues to develop the data and the product itself, but does so with greater confidence and oversight that comes from their assumption of increased responsibility and courage to take some risks along the way.
About: Babbel professionals Kimberly Schmitt and Yaniv Hamo, along with Omar Moussa from Netlight, will give a presentation on the topic.
