GENERATING OPTIMIZED CUSTOM DATA PLANES

System, method and computer program products for generating optimized and customized data planes are provided. In embodiments, a method includes: receiving a data request from a client device in a network, the data request including information regarding one or more governed datasets required by a workload; identifying attributes of available information technology (IT) infrastructure in the network; generating a blueprint of a data plane for the one or more governed datasets using a Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) solver, the blueprint including required software modules for the workload, a subset of the available IT infrastructure to execute the required software modules, and instructions for a flow of data between the required software modules based on predetermined IT configuration policies; and deploying the data plane in the network based on the blueprint, thereby connecting the workload to the one or more governed datasets by the required software modules.
