Within the DigiShape domain Data Exchange, parties work together on solutions for sharing data and software across organizational boundaries. The focus is on being able to exchange data between different organizations securely and efficiently and to optimize working with multiple cloud environments. This entails complex challenges, such as the question: How do you make good agreements about this? As each organization uses its own cloud systems, there is often a gap between the desire to share data and the reality of technical and organizational obstacles. This challenge, also known as “Multicloud”, is alive and well with many of the DigiShape partners.
A crucial basis for exchanging data is the willingness of organizations to share their data. DigiShape brings together the parties that want to work together on solutions, so that organizations do not have to reinvent the wheel. To this end, we are in line with following the FAIR principles, which we endorse as DigiShape. Standardization is essential here: without standardization of data, exchange quickly becomes unnecessarily complicated and inefficient.
DigiShape supports the findable, accessible, interchangeable and reusable working with data by providing a platform where partners exchange their ideas and strategies, test solutions and develop new standards that can be applied to the entire water sector. In this way, we accelerate innovations and strengthen cooperation within the field.
