Abstract

present significant challenges to centralized architectures such as data lakes and data warehouses, particularly in contexts involving multiple information sources. In light of these limitations, this project proposes the study and development of a decentralized platform based on the Data Mesh approach, with a focus on governance and the effective utilization of public data. Specifically, the project will involve the investigation, modeling, and prototyping of the platform's core technical components, including data extraction, transformation, storage, and governance control modules. The research will encompass an analysis of tools and technologies related to data engineering, aiming to build scalable and secure solutions that foster interoperability, traceability, and data quality within public sector organizations.
