I’ve written a previous two articles on data platforms. It’s more of a tech focus, where as data architecture is how it all stitches together and how the data flows. They are interdependent. Data strategy helps you translate your business goals into data tasks/ activities, so it informs the platform and architecture
I would recommend TOGAF for a certification but this is a pretty intense process (if your employer would sponsor it all the better). The DAMA-DMBoK book is a great resource, I've used it for this article and many others because it is basically a textbook on all things data!
great article
Great article, Dilan! I like how well you structured different stages.
Thanks Yordan! Glad it was helpful :)
What is the difference of data architecture and data platform? What about data strategy?

Where to learn the foundations of data architecture? Any certification and/or recommended readings?
