This whitepaper explores how data virtualization strengthens data mesh architectures by providing a unifying logical layer across domain-owned data products. While data mesh promotes decentralization, it can introduce governance gaps, duplication, and interoperability challenges. The paper explains how a logical data management platform enforces consistent semantics, security policies, and metadata governance without centralizing physical data. By enabling real-time, federated access across domains, organizations can accelerate analytics and AI while maintaining autonomy. The result is a scalable mesh that balances domain ownership with enterprise-wide trust and visibility.
