Data mesh
Data mesh is an approach where business domains own and publish their own data as products, supported by shared platform tooling.
Written by Reflective Data experts · updated Oct 5, 2026
Instead of one central team building everything, each domain, like marketing or finance, is responsible for the quality and documentation of its data. A common platform and governance rules keep it consistent.
It suits large organisations; smaller teams rarely need the full model.
