Industry Data Space

Foster innovation, optimize operations and share data products with your data ecosystem

What is an Industry Data Space?

An Industry Data Space is a data ecosystem where several partners, suppliers and client organizations of a given value chain, decide to share or exchange data products with a high level of security, governance and traceability, for common business or industrial objectives. 

Data products exchanged between these organizations support industrial and business use cases that require cooperation between the stakeholders of the value chain. By establishing digital continuity between these organizations, an Industry Data Space allows to industrialize and scale the use cases and generate huge value across the value chain. 

In an Industry Data Space, each participant retains full sovereignty over its data by controlling data storage and transfer means, visibility and access conditions, and by setting adapted contractual and licensing conditions. 


An Industry Data Space generally includes vertical business applications and processing environments that can easily interoperate with the Dawex Data Exchange technology.

 

 

 

Who participates in an Industry Data Space?

The orchestrator is the legal entity that manages the Industry Data Space, including participants’ recruitment, onboarding and vetting. It sets the business model regulating the data space, enforces compliance, security and trust policies, manages operations and monitoring. 

Data providers and data acquirers are participant organizations in the Industry Data Space, that agree to the governance rules and exchange data products based on predefined use cases. 

Depending on the Industry Data Space model, any type of organizations can participate such as suppliers, customers, service providers, logisticians, public organizations, shareholders, consulting or financial institutions.
