DAY 3 - PARALLEL SESSION 7
This document discusses the evolution of data spaces from closed ecosystems to open ecosystems to federations of ecosystems. It defines key concepts of data spaces including their technological, business, and legal aspects. The document outlines an example data space in the mobility domain and describes the fundamentals of data spaces including roles, interactions, and activities. It analyzes how characteristics such as interoperability, sovereignty, and trust/security change as data spaces evolve from closed to open to federations. Finally, it poses questions about who will take on the federator role to coordinate ecosystems and what business models and regulatory implications this role may have.
The document discusses establishing interoperability requirements for integrating commercial cloud providers with e-Infrastructures. It outlines the need to submit an interoperability requirements report and proposes a framework using four levels - political, legal, organizational, and technical - to organize the requirements. It also calls for stakeholders to participate in working groups on these topics to define the specific requirements in each level and domain.
PTCRIS (Portuguese Current Research Information System) is a program, officially initiated in May 2014, which aims to ensure the creation and sustained development of a national integrated information ecosystem, to support research management according to the best international standards and practices. One of PTCRIS' goals is to reduce the burden of research output management, by adopting an "input once, re-use often" principle.
PTCRISync is a synchronization framework developed in this context, that relies on ORCID - a community-based service that aims to provide a registry of unique researcher identifiers (an ORCID iD) and a method of linking research outputs to these identifiers, based on data collected from external sources - as a central hub for information exchange between the various national systems (including CV management systems such as DeGóis, open access repositories such as RCAAP or SARI, and local CRIS systems) and international systems (WoK, Scopus, Datacite, etc), that shall enable researchers (or managers) to register once a given research output at one of the interconnected national systems, and automatically propagate that output to the remaining ones, thus ensuring global consistency of the stored information.
The main challenge in the design of this framework stems from fundamental differences between the data model of ORCID and that of most CRIS services. The specified synchronization framework operates at the user profile level, that is, it synchronizes user profiles from different CRIS services with the corresponding user profile from ORCID. The effective synchronization procedures are designed to keep the user profiles at ORCID and CRIS synchronized according to well-defined consistency constraints, and satisfy several "well-behavedness" properties, such as correctness or stability. A user interface to act as a front-end for these synchronization procedures is also proposed by PTCRISync.

Cloud Modernization and Data as a Service OptionDenodo
Watch here: https://bit.ly/36tEThx
The current data landscape is fragmented, not just in location but also in terms of shape and processing paradigms. Cloud has become a key component of modern architecture design. Data lakes, IoT, NoSQL, SaaS, etc. coexist with relational databases to fuel the needs of modern analytics, ML and AI. Exploring and understanding the data available within your organization is a time-consuming task. Dealing with bureaucracy, different languages and protocols, and the definition of ingestion pipelines to load that data into your data lake can be complex. And all of this without even knowing if that data will be useful at all.
Attend this session to learn:
- How dynamic data challenges and the speed of change requires a new approach to data architecture – one that is real-time, agile and doesn’t rely on physical data movement.
- Learn how logical data architecture can enable organizations to transition data faster to the cloud with zero downtime and ultimately deliver faster time to insight.
- Explore how data as a service and other API management capabilities is a must in a hybrid cloud environment.

Data and Application Modernization in the Age of the Cloudredmondpulver
Data modernization is key to unlocking the full potential of your IT investments, both on premises and in the cloud. Enterprises and organizations of all sizes rely on their data to power advanced analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence.
Yet the path to modernizing legacy data systems for the cloud is full of pitfalls that cost time, money, and resources. These issues include high hardware and staffing costs, difficulty moving data and analytical processes to cloud environments, and inadequate support for real-time use cases. These issues delay delivery timelines and increase costs, impacting the return on investment for new, cutting-edge applications.
Watch this webinar in which James Kobielus, TDWI senior research director for data management, explores how enterprises are modernizing their mainframe data and application infrastructures in the cloud to sustain innovation and drive efficiencies. Kobielus will engage John de Saint Phalle, senior product manager at Precisely, in a discussion that addresses the following key questions:
When should enterprises consider migrating and replicating all their data assets to modern public clouds vs. retaining some on-premises in hybrid deployments?How should enterprises modernize their legacy data and application infrastructures to unlock innovation and value in the age of cloud computing?What are the key investments that enterprises should make to modernize their data pipelines to deliver better AI/ML applications in the cloud?What is the optimal data engineering workflow for building, testing, and operationalizing high-quality modern AI/ML applications in the cloud?What value does real-time replication play in migrating data and applications to modern cloud data architectures?What challenges do enterprises face in ensuring and maintaining the integrity, fitness, and quality of the data that they migrate to modern clouds?What tools and methodologies should enterprise application developers use to refactor and transform legacy data applications that have migrated to modern clouds

Open standards for linked organisations | meeting Estonia - Flemish Governmen...Raf Buyle
The Flemish Government in Belgium has an interoperability program called Open Standards for Linked Organizations (OSLO), which focuses on both technical and semantical interoperability of data and systems used for (digital) government service delivery.
On the semantical level, information is aligned with European standards (ISA² Core Vocabularies and INSPIRE), enriched by data extensions to comply with the local context. On the technical level, we developed RESTFul APIs which build upon the principles of Linked Data.
The API conforms to the Flemish URI standard1, describing how data resources can be exposed using persistent and “cool” URIs2, in line with international best practices. Because of its extensibility and since it is already a standard for data interchange on the web, Flemish Administrations have chosen the Resource Description Framework (RDF) to facilitate the creation and reuse of machine-readable data.
