Summary
This concludes the chapter on monitoring and data observability. We looked at all the complexities of monitoring a data mesh and how to integrate monitoring as part of the data mesh by adding it to the landing zone templates. We then looked at the steps for building a DMOC and briefly talked about bringing all the data monitoring aspects covered so far in this book together to build data observability.
In the next chapter, we will look at monitoring the cost of a data mesh and building an effective cross-charging system for scenarios where the central data mesh is not an independent cost center and needs to fund itself by charging for its services.
