Inspiring talks

🎙️ Tom Baeyens “Toddlers, Discipline, and Data Reliability in Data Mesh” 

Tom shared how the essence of data products in a Data Mesh lies in creating interconnected data components. These components interact through datasets governed by data contracts, quality checks, and component testing. Even without adopting a full organizational data mesh transformation, applying these software engineering best practices to data pipelines is a rising trend to enhance Data Reliability.

🎙️ Frederic Lebeau “Securing Data Mesh Collaboration with Confidential Computing"

Frederic delved into Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PET) and confidential computing. He demonstrated how data products can securely process confidential data using Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs). These environments enable trusted workloads with end-to-end encryption, ensuring that data access remains restricted to the workload itself ( not users) and operates without sharing credentials.

We want to thank Soda and DataVillage for partnering with us to make this edition once again a great success!
