Data Mesh - The Data Quality Control Mechanism for MLOps? // Scott Hirleman // MLOps Coffee Sessions #77

MLOps Coffee Sessions #77 with Scott Hirleman, Data Mesh - The Data Quality Control Mechanism for MLOps?

// Abstract
Scott covers what is a data mesh at a high level for those not familiar. Data mesh is potentially a great win for ML/MLOps as there is very clear guidance on creating useful, clean, well-documented/described and interoperable data for "unexpected use". So instead of data spelunking being a harrowing task, it can be a very fruitful one. And that one data set that was so awesome?

Well, it wasn't a one-off, it's managed as a product with regular refreshes! And there is a LOT more ownership/responsibility on data producers to make sure the downstream doesn't break. Might sound like kumbaya for MLOps (or total BS?) re far cleaner data and fewer upstream breaks so let's discuss the realities and limitations!

// Bio
A self-professed "chaotic (mostly) good character", Scott is focused on helping the data mesh community accelerate towards finding solutions for some of data management's hardest challenges. He founded the Data Mesh Learning community specifically to gather enough people to exchange ideas - much of which is patterned off the MLOps community. He hosts the Data Mesh Radio podcast, where he dives deep into topics related to data mesh to provide the data community with useful perspectives and thoughts on data mesh.
