🕸️ Data Mesh: Decentralising Data Ownership

An interactive 3D network of domain-owned data products where toggling centralized versus mesh architectures changes simulated data-request latency and governance-compliance indicators.

Data Science3DModerate60 FPS

A 3D network of domain-owned data products compares a decentralized data mesh against a centralized warehouse, showing how routing every request through one hub raises latency while a federated governance layer keeps compliance in check either way.

🔬 What It Demonstrates

In mesh mode, requests travel directly between domain nodes and latency stays low as domains are added. In centralized mode, every request is rerouted through a single hub, so latency grows with both domain count and request rate — a visible bottleneck.

🎮 How to Use

Toggle between architectures, adjust domain count and request rate, and raise governance strictness to see the compliance rate change. Green particles pass their governance check; red particles are flagged as violations.

💡 Did You Know?

Zhamak Dehghani's 2019 "data mesh" model rests on four principles: domain ownership, data-as-a-product, self-serve infrastructure, and federated computational governance — decentralising storage without decentralising standards.
