Fraunhofer Institute for Software and Systems EngineeringThe project "The Data Space Lab" was launched in 2023 with the aim of further developing the existing Eclipse Data Space Components from Huawei and Fraunhofer ISST as as-a-Service components. This will support the development and internationalization of data spaces.
The Data Space Lab
The challenge
The open source Eclipse Data Space components have been developed in such a way that every company and every use case can integrate the components individually into their own system landscape. This presents some companies with the challenge of having to start an integration project in order to participate in or build data spaces.
Our contribution
Together with Huawei, we are further developing the Eclipse Data Space components so that they can be operated as services in the cloud as easily as possible. Partners can then start their own data spaces using the services or participate in existing data spaces such as Catena-X or the Mobility Data Space. Both should be made as simple as possible, for example by preconfiguring the existing components. The services are then used by the partners to offer or consume data.
The results
The Data Space Lab is an open initiative in which every company is welcome to participate and contribute to the development.
