An initiative resulting in a formal standard

The International Data Spaces Association (IDSA) has defined a reference architecture and a formal standard to be used for creating and operating virtual data spaces. The IDS architecture is based on commonly accepted data governance models facilating secure exchange and easy linkage of data within business ecosystems.

Data Sovereinty

The objective of the International Data Spaces is to establish a standard for data sovereignty – for the trustworthy, self-determined exchange of data. Combined with a supranational, standardized cloud system, IDS, being an international standard for data sovereignty, would create a key element for a Europe-wide digital infrastructure.

TRUST FOR DATA SHARING ECOSYSTEMS

The adoption of the IDS idea in the market takes place in three stages: Research to solve previously unresolved questions, Consensus building on architecture, implementation options and standardization in the association‘s committees and Transfer of concepts from the association‘s work into marketable products and services by companies from the association and outside.

GLOBAL & INTEROPERATIONAL STANDARD

The specification of the International Data Spaces Association forms the basis for data ecosystems and marketplaces based on European values, i.e. data protection and security, equality of opportunities, through a federated design, through ensuring data sovereignty for the data originator and through trust between the participants.

Value

The International Data Spaces Association is a charitable, not-for-profit organization. All members have the same rights to use the results. Lorem ipsum doloret igitur sunt equis ament sic laborem et inter operabilis metam quid etam
