Data Lake And Zone Architecture

Overview

Use this skill when the storage platform needs structure before pipelines scale into chaos. It helps agents design clear lake zones, dataset boundaries, ownership, lifecycle rules, and publish-safe storage conventions.

When to Use

• designing a new data lake
• reorganizing raw, staging, refined, or curated zones
• defining object storage layout and lifecycle rules
• separating landing, transformation, and publish responsibilities
• reducing data swamp behavior in shared lake storage

Do not use this to justify creating extra layers with no operational purpose.
