We’ll discuss how to get started with your implementation by identifying a strong use case and using it to prove the concept. We’ll also look at the minimal data contract implementation you need to support that proof of concept.
Next, we’ll build on that and discuss how to migrate the rest of your datasets to data contracts and consider a couple of approaches to doing that. That will lead to more data contracts being created. And that, with the increased distribution of ownership, means we’ll need to provide some services to help with the discovery of data contracts, so we’ll look at what those services are and why they are needed. Finally, we’ll look at what is required to build a mature data contracts-backed data culture.
