On May 18, C2C hosted its second EMEA event at Google’s Munich office. We believe in-person connections are invaluable to everyone in our community, especially when our members are able to immediately converse with amazing speakers who are sharing their journeys and business outcomes.

Another AMAZING event came to an end! Munich, we already miss you!
It was Wednesday the 18th of May where we all met at the Google Offices in Munich for our 2nd C2C in-person event this year!
A Warm Welcome from C2C and Google Cloud

Data Mesh at MediaMarktSaturn

Fabian Seitz (
rocked on stage with his "Data mesh @ MMS" presentation. Fabian started talking about who they are, what challenges they met, where they started and talked about "The Data Mesh - not only a technical implementation", what defines a data mesh, identified its core pillars.

Fabian then talked about business driven data architecture and talked about the business object, comparing it then vs a data object. He gave examples on how the data architecture is reflected in an organization form, how they organized their GCP folder structure, offered a technical overview of how teams are providing data to the Mesh, as well as an architecture overview of how components are connected. Fabian also offered an example event driven flow of order updates and showed everyone a standardized format that they have for the data exchange on the mesh, before offering us some stats of their Mesh.
Fabian then talked about Lighthouse Use-Cases, Key Learnings and ended his talk with a Q&A session.
Great talk, quite technical, went into a lot of details and the audience loved it!
