Federation framework for data Sharing: F2Share

The software Federation Framework for data Sharing (F2Share) allows to federate data from heterogeneous data sources. For instance, biobank data can be integrated with register data, lab data, research data etc. This software framework is based on Elastic Stack and in-house developed modules to integrate all the components in an automated workflow.

General architecture

General principles

The federation will design its own governance. Nevertheless, there are basic requirements to be able to share data through this federation framework:

The federation has to design the standard of the federation:

Each member of the federation has to:

  • Map its data to the esblished standard
  • Allocate a data repository to export the data
  • Install the program Filebeat to notify when the data in the repository has changed

The central server of the federation extracts, transforms and loads data from each client in a central index from where data is visualized through a very flexible and advanced visualization and exploration tool.

general worflow

MySQL database is used to pre-process data before creating the ElasticSearch index.
