IDS Reference Architecture Model

Data Exchange, Data Sharing, and Data Sovereignty are crucial for businesses that rely on data. The International Data Spaces Reference Architecture Model (IDS-RAM) provides a framework for ensuring trusted data exchange and defines key concepts related to Data Sovereignty, Data Sharing, and Data Exchange. The IDS-RAM operates at a higher abstraction level than typical software architecture models and consists of five layers that specify the various roles, activities, and interactions involved in creating a secure network of trusted data. The IDS-RAM also includes three perspectives - Security, Certification, and Governance - that are essential for ensuring the security and integrity of the data. Overall, the IDS-RAM provides a comprehensive guide for implementing secure and trusted data exchange in the International Data Spaces.
