They are responsible for ocado.com and Ocado Zoom, the fast-growing, same-day grocery service.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The unique structure enables them to outperform the market, combining award-winning customer service and unrivalled customer data; world-leading technology and logistics from Ocado Group, and unrivalled product development from M&amp;S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their ambition is to be the biggest online grocer in the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-outcome-of-ocado-retail-ltd-s-collaboration-with-devoteam-g-cloud\">The outcome of Ocado Retail Ltd\u2019s collaboration with Devoteam G Cloud<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After only a couple of weeks of closely working together with Ocado Retail Ltd, we <strong>added a new layer on top of the existing data ecosystem to tackle data governance issues that leads to faster and effective search of data, useful insights in the data and more trust in the data.<\/strong> All key features put Ocado Retail into the position to further leverage the existing data ecosystem to analyse their data and support them in their mission to \u201cbe the biggest online grocer in the UK\u201d. In the sections below we\u2019ll dive deeper into how exactly we achieved this result together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-problem\">The problem<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a big data ecosystem like Ocado Retail Ltd has, there are a lot of pipelines and it can easily be <a href=\"https:\/\/gcloud.devoteam.com\/blog\/a-journey-from-chaos-to-clarity-overcome-hurdles-specific-to-data-projects-with-these-project-management-hacks\/\">very complex<\/a> to find your way through the huge data ecosystem. With more data comes more responsibilities. The way users experience data goes beyond dashboards and reports. As the data ecosystem is big, data governance is not easy to manage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ocado Retail Ltd wanted to answer the following questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Where can I find data?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How does the data flow?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Who has consumed which data?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What data values can I expect?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Can I trust the data?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Who is the owner of the data?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The core of the problem was that there was only a technical way to search data<\/strong>. Analysts struggled to find data and extract insights. To tackle these problems, Devoteam G Cloud implemented the Data Inventory Tool at Ocado Retail Ltd. Devoteam set up a <a href=\"https:\/\/gcloud.devoteam.com\/blog\/building-a-scalable-and-agile-modern-data-architecture-lessons-from-deliverect\/\">data mesh architecture<\/a> with Dataplex and created custom Looker Studio dashboards to get insights into who has accessed the data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t<div class=\"align wp-block-acf-quote\">\n\n\t\n\t<figure class=\"text-center\"><blockquote class=\"blockquote\"><svg width=\"49\" height=\"38\" viewBox=\"0 0 49 38\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n<path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M42.875 0C44.4995 0 46.0574 0.652728 47.206 1.81459C48.3547 2.97645 49 4.55228 49 6.1954V15.4885C49 17.1316 48.3547 18.7075 47.206 19.8693C46.0574 21.0312 44.4995 21.6839 42.875 21.6839H33.6875C33.6875 24.1486 34.6555 26.5123 36.3785 28.2551C38.1014 29.9979 40.4383 30.977 42.875 30.977H45.9375C46.7497 30.977 47.5287 31.3034 48.103 31.8843C48.6773 32.4652 49 33.2532 49 34.0747C49 34.8963 48.6773 35.6842 48.103 36.2651C47.5287 36.8461 46.7497 37.1724 45.9375 37.1724H42.875C38.8139 37.1724 34.9191 35.5406 32.0474 32.6359C29.1758 29.7313 27.5625 25.7917 27.5625 21.6839V6.1954C27.5625 4.55228 28.2078 2.97645 29.3565 1.81459C30.5051 0.652728 32.063 0 33.6875 0H42.875ZM15.3125 0C16.937 0 18.4949 0.652728 19.6435 1.81459C20.7922 2.97645 21.4375 4.55228 21.4375 6.1954V15.4885C21.4375 17.1316 20.7922 18.7075 19.6435 19.8693C18.4949 21.0312 16.937 21.6839 15.3125 21.6839H6.125C6.125 24.1486 7.09296 26.5123 8.81596 28.2551C10.5389 29.9979 12.8758 30.977 15.3125 30.977H18.375C19.1872 30.977 19.9662 31.3034 20.5405 31.8843C21.1148 32.4652 21.4375 33.2532 21.4375 34.0747C21.4375 34.8963 21.1148 35.6842 20.5405 36.2651C19.9662 36.8461 19.1872 37.1724 18.375 37.1724H15.3125C11.2514 37.1724 7.35658 35.5406 4.48493 32.6359C1.61328 29.7313 0 25.7917 0 21.6839V6.1954C0 4.55228 0.645313 2.97645 1.79397 1.81459C2.94263 0.652728 4.50055 0 6.125 0H15.3125Z\" fill=\"#3C3C3A\"\/>\n<\/svg><p>Data mesh architecture makes finding data in BigQuery or Cloud Storage easy, even if you don&#8217;t know where it&#8217;s stored.

Dataplex harvests all the metadata used in its data mesh structure. Cloud Storage Bucket and BigQuery Dataset metadata automatically update without any manual intervention. The Ocado Retail Ltd data governance lead designed the data mesh structure together with Devoteam G Cloud and used Terraform to implement it. Devoteam G Cloud automated the creation of assets with a generation script.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This metadata provides a <strong>single-pane-of-glass <\/strong>view of the Data Inventory Tool with Dataplex. All data governance functionality like data lineage, data steward, business terms,&nbsp; etc. is available in one place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-methodology-and-results\">The methodology and results&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-goal-1-automatic-metadata-harvesting\">Goal 1: automatic metadata harvesting<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Together with Jim, the data governance lead of Ocado Retail, we created a data mesh architecture implemented with Dataplex lakes, zones, assets and entities. A data mesh is a decentralised data architecture that organises data by a specific business domain, for example, sales, customer service, and marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\u2019s discuss the Dataplex architecture:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Lake<\/strong>: A logical construct representing a data domain or business unit. For example, to organise data based on group usage, you can set up a lake per department (for example, Retail, Sales, Finance).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Zone<\/strong>: A sub-domain within a lake, useful to categorise data by stage (for example, landing, raw, curated_data_analytics, curated_data_science), usage (for example, data contract), or restrictions (for example, security controls, user access levels). Zones are of two types, raw and curated.\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Raw zone<\/strong>: Data in its raw format and not subject to strict type-checking.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Curated zone<\/strong>: Data cleaned, formatted, and ready for analytics. The data is columnar, Hive-partitioned, in Parquet, Avro, Orc files, or BigQuery tables. Data undergoes type-checking, for example, to prohibit CSV files because they do not perform as well for SQL access.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Asset<\/strong>: An asset maps to data stored in either Cloud Storage or BigQuery. You can map data stored in separate Google Cloud projects as assets into a single zone.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Entity<\/strong>: An entity represents the metadata for structured and semi-structured data (table) and unstructured data (files).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/devoteam.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/KInbgMIYhu_m53JwZR04-i55hMAtvhWDnwwi32JMr2UoF1mCvK3qL8byEHq649PN1wW0-_ccSE_NEZ_RZg-Cd6LPnMGkHw_6MQY4mnVTTcWBMBJJ0B78VhoQMYzXAEh4-BxqY6ZxBXv5gw2DOTL2JH0.jpeg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The lakes, zones, and assets were set up with Terraform.
