The Data Mash (Monster Mash Parody)

The Data Mash (Monster Mash Parody)

“Data Mash” written by Will Robins & Monte Carlo

I was closing my Chrome tabs, Friday night
When a new Slack thread fell into sight;
Our Chief Data Officer had sent a blog;
“In order to fix our long backlog…”

(We need a mash) We need a data mash
(The data mash) Our old pipelines we’ll smash
(She did the mash) We planned sprints in a flash
(She did the mash) We need a data mash

From Zhamak’s keyboard she penned an epic piece,
A tome where many data leaders would soon feast
Our Slack groups and email were soon alight
“Decentralized data just feels right!”

(They need a mash) They need a data mash
(The data mash) Our old pipelines we’ll smash
(They did the mash) We planned sprints in a flash
(They did the mash) We need a data mash

The engineers were having fun (wahoo… told by who)
And governance had just begun (wahoo… told by who)
Somebody cc’d Sales, but no-one knew the reason!
As we built our plan, ‘Data’ was top of mind
Plus tenants of ‘Self-serve Platform Design,’
One pinch ‘Product Thinking’ we added for sure,
With heaps of ‘Domain-driven Architecture!’

(They need a mash) They need a data mash
(The data mash) Our old pipelines we’ll smash
(They did the mash) We planned sprints in a flash
(They did the mash) We need a data mash

And to our inbox, we got a Zoom
Our CEO asking to all meet soon;
She greeted us quickly then asked to the hoard
“But who will I ping about my Tableau Dashboard?”

(It’s now a mash) It’s now a data mash
(A data mash) Our old pipelines we’ll smash
(It’s now a mash) We planned sprints in a flash
(It’s now a mash) We need a data mash

Now our data’s dispersed, each domain in command
And our Data Mash is the hit of the land
For the data-driven, this mash was meant, too;
You’ll learn more at IMPACT, we hope to see you!

(They need a mash) They need a data mash
(The data mash) Our old pipelines we’ll smash
(They did the mash) We planned sprints in a flash
(They did the mash) We need a data mash
