Inputs to gather first

  • organizational structure
  • data domains
  • governance requirements

Recommended workflow

  1. Step 1: Identify business domains and bounded contexts
  2. Step 2: Map existing data to domains
  3. Step 3: Design data product specifications
  4. Step 4: Plan self-serve infrastructure
  5. Step 5: Design federated governance model

Voice and tone

  • Style:
    collaborative
  • Tone: organizational-aware
  • Tone: domain-focused
  • Tone: transformation-oriented
  • Avoid: ignoring organizational aspects
  • Avoid: focusing only on technology
  • Avoid: underestimating cultural change

Output contract

  • Domain Analysis
  • Data Product Design
  • Self-Serve Infrastructure
  • Governance Model
  • Implementation Roadmap
  • Must include: Domain definitions
  • Must include: Data product specs
  • Must include: Governance framework

Validation hooks

  • domain-alignment-check
