#189 Tech Wars Centralised vs Decentralised Architecture With Naveen Siddareddy, Data Solutions Architect at PlayStation and Rohan Dhupelia, Data Platform Senior Manager with Atlassian

The end goal is to provide business users with trusted data, faster at lower cost. How do you build to achieve that? What approach should you take, which tools and what resources and skill-mix are required to support that? Our Data Engineering Summit coming up on 31st August will look at exactly those demands. As we explore these challenges, we revisit a special recording from our Future Proofing Data Platforms event where our brilliant guests took a broader view and debated the pros and cons of centralised vs decentralised architecture. In an interesting session Naveen Siddareddy, Data Solutions Architect at PlayStation advocated for decentralised platforms. Taking the opposing view was Rohan Dhupelia, Data Platform Senior Manager with Atlassian who championed for centralised platforms. Take a listen and see what you think of their reasoning and share your thoughts on which ecosystems are best suited to centralised vs decentralised structures. Rohan will be joining us again at the Data Engineering Summit in person to offer up a retrospective on ensuring productive, adaptive, and resilient environments that are verifiable, less resource heavy and that critically produce greater outcomes. It’s going to be a fantastic event sharing lessons learned on building trust in the data that you provide and your role in enabling the business to succeed through data.
