Data Mesh - Concession to Reality?

I love the way that you put it as a concession to reality. I think for years, for decades, we've been trying to centralize all of our data into one central enterprise data warehouse with the goal of being able to understand our business holistically. And if I want to enable agility and self service analytics for my organization, I need to access the data where it lives. Now is the time to take a second look at it because really the technologies underlying it have changed dramatically.
