Welcome to another episode of Data Architecture Elevator, hosted by Paolo Platter (https://www.linkedin.com/in/paoloplatter/) and featuring Antonino Ingargiola (https://www.linkedin.com/in/antonino-ingargiola/) and Antonio Murgia (https://www.linkedin.com/in/antonio-murgia/).
The conversation explores how Model Context Protocol (MCP), introduced by Anthropic, enables interoperability between LLM-based agentic applications and external systems through a standardized client-server model. In this setup, agents (LLM clients) discover and invoke tools exposed by MCP-compliant servers. This protocol decouples integration logic, allowing systems to interoperate without custom code. The discussion then applies MCP to data products in a data mesh architecture, where output ports (data access), observability ports (data quality and freshness), and control ports (operations) can be exposed as tools via MCP. This allows agents to autonomously query data, evaluate its quality, and even trigger operational commands like restarts or compliance actions. Enjoy it :)

Welcome to another episode of Data Architecture Elevator Podcast!
Today we'll tackle another hot topic: Data Privacy related to Large Language Models. Large language models (LLMs) have changed the way we interact with technology, enabling more natural conversations, automating tasks, and generating human-like responses. But as the saying goes, with great power comes great responsibility. The intersection of LLMs and privacy raises crucial questions: How do these models process and store user data? What safeguards exist to prevent unintended data retention? And what steps can businesses take to ensure compliance with data protection regulations? Join the discussion with our host Paolo Platter and our guests Antonio Murgia, Antonino Ingargiola and Irene Donato.

Hello there!
Today we'll explore the usage of WebAssembly to streamline User Defined Functions. We're going to do that with the help of our guest Andrea Fonti and our dear host Antonio Murgia. User-defined functions (UDFs) have long been a powerful tool for extending database and query engine capabilities. From traditional relational databases to modern big data platforms like Hive and Spark, UDFs enable developers to introduce custom logic tailored to their specific needs. However, the existing methods of implementing UDFs often come with significant constraints: rigid language requirements, security concerns, and performance bottlenecks. WebAssembly (Wasm) is a technology that promises a more flexible, secure, and efficient approach to UDF development.

Imagine a world where your sensitive data vanishes—not just deleted, but utterly irretrievable. That’s the magic of crypto-shredding: a technique where encryption keys are destroyed, rendering the data useless, forever.
🔑 Why does this matter?
✅ No keys = No access.
✅ It's clean, efficient, and a data security mic drop.
✅ Essential for GDPR compliance, sensitive records, and peace of mind.
In this episode, we break it down:
What crypto-shredding is (and isn’t).
Real-world use cases and myths busted.
When you should consider it for your business.
Hosted by Paolo Platter, we will dive into Data Privacy and Crypto-Shredding with the help of Francesco Valentini and Antonio Murgia.
