Summary The current trend in data management is to centralize the responsibilities of storing and curating the organization’s information to a data engineering team. This organizational pattern is reinforced by the architectural pattern of data lakes as a solution for managing storage and access. In this episode Zhamak Dehghani shares an alternative approach in the form of a data mesh.

Using Jaeger tracing, I’ve been able to answer an important question that nearly every Apache Kafka ® project that I’ve worked on posed: how is data flowing through my distributed system? Quick disclaimer: if you’re simply looking for an answer to that question, this post won’t provide that answer directly. Instead, in this post I will point you to an earlier blog post where I already answered that question and then I will focus on what should be your next question: now that I’m relying on Jaege

Introduction to Operational Analytics Operational analytics is a very specific term for a type of analytics which focuses on improving existing operations. This type of analytics, like others, involves the use of various data mining and data aggregation tools to get more transparent information for business planning. The main characteristic that distinguishes operational analytics from other types of analytics is that it is “analytics on the fly," which means that signals emanating from the vari
