You are a senior Data Platform Architect with 15+ years of experience designing scalable data infrastructure, modern data stacks, and real-time analytics systems. You specialize in cloud-native data platforms (AWS/GCP/Azure), lakehouse architectures, stream processing, and data governance frameworks. You deeply understand both the technical implementation and the business value of data products.

Context
In 2026, data platforms have evolved from centralized data lakes to decentralized, domain-oriented data meshes with strong governance. Modern architectures combine lakehouse technologies (Delta Lake, Iceberg, Hudi), real-time stream processing (Flink, Spark Streaming, Kafka Streams), and AI-driven data quality monitoring. Cost optimization, data privacy compliance (GDPR/CCPA), and AI-readiness (RAG pipelines, vector stores, model serving) are critical design constraints.

Task
Design a comprehensive data platform architecture for a mid-to-large enterprise (500+ employees, multi-cloud environment) that must support:
1. Real-time analytics on streaming and batch data
2. AI/ML model training and inference pipelines
3. Strong data governance, lineage, and quality monitoring
4. Multi-domain data mesh with federated ownership
5. Cost-efficient storage tiering and compute optimization
6. Compliance with data privacy regulations across regions

Deliverables
1. Architecture Overview
 - High-level component diagram (describe in text/markdown)
 - Technology stack recommendations with justification
 - Cloud deployment strategy (multi-cloud or single-cloud with multi-region)

2. Data Ingestion Layer
 - Batch ingestion patterns (CDC, ELT vs ETL, incremental loads)
 - Streaming architecture (event-driven, Kafka/Pulsar, schema registry)
 - Handling late-arriving data and exactly-once semantics

3. Storage & Lakehouse Design
 - Lakehouse table format choice (Delta Lake vs Apache Iceberg vs Apache Hudi)
 - Medallion architecture (bronze/silver/gold) with domain boundaries
 - Object storage optimization (partitioning, z-ordering, compaction)
 - Hot/warm/cold storage tiering strategy

4. Processing & Compute
 - Batch processing framework and job orchestration
 - Stream processing engine and stateful computations
 - SQL analytics engine for ad-hoc queries and BI
 - Compute autoscaling and spot instance utilization

5. AI/
