This presentation outlines the results of large, real-world implementation project undertaken by EFSA and delaware. In this project we focused on rolling out an elaborate governance model to enable different data engineering teams to develop, industrialize and share data products in a reliable manner. Inspired by the data mesh principles, we established a decentralized governance model that gives the data engineering teams the autonomy to build further on each other's data products (centered around Delta Sharing for cross-team data sharing) while enforcing all teams to adhere to common policies and shared development best-practices (including the DevOps workflow). This session caters to IT professionals, architects, and decision-makers looking for practical insights on how to realize a decentralized platform governance model in Databricks.
