Platform high-level architecture and data flows

The Data4Impact platform will be built using the D-NET Software Toolkit that is a data infrastructure “enabling software” currently used to operate known production systems (e.g. the OpenAIRE infrastructure, the EFG infrastructure, and several national repository aggregator infrastructures). D-NET will be configured, extended, and deployed to deliver the Data4Impact platform back-end, with the aim of supporting tools for scholarly communication objects aggregation and mining of publication, patent, company, social media/media, etc. data. The delivery of an operational platform, with the required computation and storage needs, will be based on an initial set of non-functional requirements to be defined in synergy with WPs 2, 4, 5 and 6.
