https://docs.trr379.de/references/goals/rdm-infrastructure/index.html[This is a draft under discussion] The planned RDM infrastructure is a federation of interoperable site infrastructures. The key design principle is that no primary data are aggregated to a central infrastructure. We aim to establish an infrastructure that is suitable for use within the TRR379, but not limited to this scope. Once deployed, the associated services are usable beyond the scope of TRR379. The following schema sketches the planned infrastructure. Components that hold (primary) data are depicted in yellow. Components that hold (mostly or exclusively) metadata are shown in blue. The direction of information flow is indicated by arrows, exchange of data by solid arrows, and metadata-only exchange by dotted arrows. Infrastructures that are only accessible to authorized agents are labeled with a “lock” symbol. Further details on individual components are provided below.Hugoen-us
