Data Spine Components' Interaction

Figure 1: Data Spine Components' Interaction

Figure 1 illustrates the technological platforms, tools and services selected to realise different components of the Data Spine and the interactions between them. The figure also shows Service Provider providing service S1 through the Data Spine and Service Consumer’s service S2 consuming S1 through the Data Spine with the help of ‘Integration Flow 1’.

In this way, the Data Spine provides the necessary integration infrastructure to bridge the interoperability gaps between heterogeneous services and enables communication in the EFPF ecosystem.
