For Wayne, a data product is a data asset that has all the characteristics of something that can be bought and sold by people you don\u2019t know.\u201d (See figure 1.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In other words, a data product involves a transaction, even if the transaction involves no exchange of money\u2014i.e., the data product freely given and received. A data product also exhibits the same five characteristics of real-world products described above: they are standardized, packaged, shoppable, deliverable, and returnable.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Finally, a data product is found in a data store, which gives it some of the characteristics defined above. It\u2019s true not all data products will be in data stores or marketplaces, but you can guarantee that a data asset published to a data marketplace is a data product.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sub\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"quote\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p> \u201cA data product is a data asset that has all the characteristics of something that can be bought and sold by people you don\u2019t know.\u201d <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"vidimg\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"iframelink\">youtu.be\/HGOEThm5xfc<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<iframe class=\"videoem\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HGOEThm5xfc?rel=0\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"txtlnk\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\t\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\t\n\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n\t<div style=\" z-index: 2\" class=\"simplesub wow zoomIn bgorange b80w notoppover footover cignore singleyes\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"textblockwrap\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sub\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"cfigure bgnone\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2>Figure 1.
