## Speakers

- **Mira Boteva**, VP, Lead Product Manager, Metadata Management, Deutsche Boerse. Mira leads the strategic implementation of enterprise metadata across the exchange group. She's building API platforms and marketplaces that democratize data discovery.

## Company

**Deutsche Boerse.** Europe's 3rd-largest exchange, Deutsche Boerse operates 30+ trading venues processing EUR 1.3T annually. Their multi-cloud architecture on Google Cloud, Azure, and Databricks enables AI-driven fraud surveillance, unlocks digital trading ecosystems, and delivers real-time analytics where milliseconds determine billions.

## What's inside

Deutsche Boerse Group operates like a city of separate buildings - each entity has its own systems, ways of working, and data culture. The challenge: preserve local autonomy while ensuring group-wide consistency through shared principles and policies, requiring custom federated admin and governance roles that standard platforms don't provide out of the box.

Key takeaways:

- Federated governance balances local freedom with central coordination across multiple entities or business units
- Standard catalog roles don't work for complex organizations - custom federated roles enable domain-specific ownership
- On-premise data sources create integration challenges as cloud migration progresses at different speeds across entities
- Automation goals often clash with reality - minimizing manual UI work requires continuous collaboration with platform vendors
- Responsive product roadmaps matter when you need to prioritize features that fit your unique governance structure
