Hi, not sure if this is the right channel for this but - we’re creating a new entity
DataProduct
to represent the Data Mesh notion of a data product. First question is whether anyone else is already doing that for contribution to DataHub. The second question is, do you think this is valuable enough for us to contribute it to DataHub? cc: @colossal-sandwich-50049

@great-toddler-2251 this would be a very welcome contribution!

We'd need to spec out the specifics, but I think the community would be eager to engage in a discussion around this.

Hi @mammoth-bear-12532 @big-carpet-38439 glad to hear it and work with you on fleshing out the requirements and design. Right now I’m having our UX designer mock up some screens based on some thoughts I have about it, and I’m trying to write down some details on requirements of what metadata would be needed for a Data Product. I have a lot of open questions. I will get this all written down and share it. What would be the best approach to share these requirements and questions?

@great-toddler-2251 - just reading this thread and very excited!! Could you include @creamy-thailand-75908, @aloof-author-52810 and @dry-zoo-35797 in any future discussions about adding the concept of data as a product to the core datahub platform? Of note: we’ve already extended the metamodel with a DataProduct entity along with a product registration & management experience. Still very early stages, but live in production. cc/ @big-carpet-38439, @mammoth-bear-12532, @little-megabyte-1074

Hi @great-toddler-2251! This is a very exciting initiative! There are a ton of folks in the Community that would love to have a well-defined “Data Product” entity. I’ve created #design-data-product-entity & added folks in this thread — let’s start the conversation over there!

Thanks sounds good; talk to you all over there
