3. Event Streaming Real-time event transport for publish and subscribe flows between services and data products.

4. Storage Relational persistence, object storage, and backup and administration layers for operational and analytical data.

5. Transformation and Quality Deterministic transformations, tests, and validation checks to produce trusted outputs.

6. Catalog, Governance, and Secrets Metadata management, policy enforcement, access controls, and credential and secret handling.

7. Publishing and Consumption Dashboards, portals, APIs, and data product endpoints for internal and external consumers.

8. Documentation and Operations Runbooks, observability, alerting, and day-to-day platform operations.

Ownership and Operations

• Define service owners and escalation paths per layer.
• Link each layer to operational runbooks.
• Track quality and reliability objectives as part of regular operations.
