One of the biggest time costs in software development is understanding how a system works. Systems are getting more complex yet our ability to understand them doesn’t seem to be growing at the same rate. As we continuously develop software systems, the complexity slowly increases and we don’t fully realise it.

In the labyrinth of data-driven architectures, the challenge of data integration—fusing data from disparate sources into a coherent, usable form — stands as one of the cornerstones.
