Strategic impact of the Dataspace Protocol
The Dataspace Protocol is poised to revolutionize data sharing, much like the Internet Protocol (IP) and GSM standards did for the internet and mobile communications. The IDSA’s efforts in standardizing this protocol aim to unlock new opportunities for collaboration and innovation across various sectors.
The publication details the standardization path for the Dataspace Protocol, moving through development by the IDSA Working Group Architecture, handling by the Eclipse Dataspace Working Group, and final standardization by the ISO/IEC Joint Technical Committee 1.
This is a milestone in the journey towards a data-driven future, where data sharing is based on trust and data sovereignty. The IDSA’s commitment to international standardization sets the stage for a new era of data management and innovation.
