Base4NFDI has published its first Policy Paper: Base4NFDI Services and EOSC: Guidance for Interoperability.
Access it here on Zenodo: Policy paper on services interoperability within EOSC (Version 1)
Interoperability with EOSC is at the heart of Base4NFDI and this activity paves the way to better identifying how to establish links to EOSC EU Node activities and how to engage the Base4NFDI service teams with interoperability discussions in the months ahead.
The paper introduces activities of the NFDI, the emerging Base4NFDI services, current EOSC developments, and explores ways the German national initiative can find connectivity and complement the ongoing European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) activities. It examines the EOSC Interoperability Framework as a tool to find pathways for potential alignment between Base4NFDI Basic services with EOSC, lists action areas, and gives practical guidance for Base4NFDI services to enable organisational, technical, semantic and legal interoperability. Readership is targeted towards the Base4NFDI service development teams, the NFDI and EOSC communities.
