In this particular area, the desire to save human life by discovering modern methods of therapy and diagnostics often contradicts another fundamental right of the patient - the right to privacy and the right to dispose of one’s data.

We’ll be left in the dust, lacking the gas — the data — to fuel us ahead in the digital economy. Gartner® said, “According to the Sixth Annual Gartner Chief Data Officer Survey,1 respondents who successfully increased data sharing led D&A teams that were 1.7 times more effective at showing demonstrable, verifiable value to D&A stakeholders.”

Data mesh is an innovative approach to data management that offers a solution to the most common challenges organizations face when dealing with large-scale data management. Data mesh concept consists of four key principles for large-scale data management in a multi-tiered, multi-domain organizational structure: domainoriented ownership, data as product, federated computational governance and a self-service data platform. These all promote a more agile, efficient and scalable data architecture. However, one of the central challenges to implementing data mesh is designing decentralized governance mechanisms that align with its core principles.
