Many organisations embraced Data Mesh. Many also discovered that organisational change is much harder than technology change.

In this episode, Kris Peeters speaks with Arif Wider about what remained valuable after the initial hype around Data Mesh settled.

They discuss why Data Products have become the practical foundation for modern data organisations, where Data Contracts fit into the picture, and how organisations can modernise legacy platforms without starting over.

The conversation also looks ahead at AI-assisted software engineering, cross-company data sharing, and the skills future data teams will need.
