Open Source Climate: Building a Data Mesh
The Linux Foundation’s collaborative approach, fostering partnerships among diverse companies, is explored in the joint development of pre-competitive software layers. OS-Climate members like Allianz, Amazon/AWS, and BNP Paribas showcase collaborative solutions for Physical Risk & Resilience and Sector Alignment with climate goals. Use cases include credit risk in banking and portfolio construction for asset managers, with potential public interest applications, such as collaboration with Nigerian Universities for agriculture risk. The presentation emphasizes the importance of accurate, interoperable data for actionable insights and introduces OS-Climate’s Data Mesh architecture, addressing data challenges. The architecture’s deployment for carbon footprint data in sovereign bonds aligns with Net Zero goals, with broader applications discussed at COP, including biodiversity and nature-based solutions. Cloud-based high-performance computing and the Amazon Sustainability Data Initiative play a crucial role.
