Connected Data Spaces
Connected Data Spaces
Data-driven business models, the move towards automation and the pressures of regulatory compliance often necessitate the sharing of data across organisational boundaries. Data spaces are one of the keys to achieving simple, secure and self-determined data sharing. We are your specialist when it comes to data room technology.
Your benefits from Data Spaces
- Cost reduction
- More competition: Breaking up monopolies and vendor lock situations.
- Cost efficiency: Simplified data exchange makes cross-company data exchange projects more cost-effective.
- Quality assurance: Various use cases aim to identify quality problems at an early stage and minimize high follow-up costs.
- Reduced costs: Use of design data for simulation instead of expensive prototypes, which also improves time to market.
- Quality improvement
Early detection of problems along the supply chain not only reduces costs, but also enables rapid improvements. - Compliance with normative and regulatory requirements
Increasing compliance requirements (e.g. LkSG/CSDDD, EU Battery Regulation, Digital Product Passport (DPP)) require comprehensive evidence. This quickly becomes a challenge over longer supply chains. - Marketing of data
Data spaces simplify cross-organizational data exchange and offer a marketplace for buying, selling and upgrading data.

What exactly are data spaces?
Data spaces offer an ideal ecosystem and marketplace for the secure exchange of data and applications. They enable a cross-organizational and cross-company data flow in order to implement complex use cases in network structures.
Aims and values of Data Spaces
Openness & interoperability
Common standards and the use of open source software (FOSS) facilitate data exchange and the mapping of cross-organizational use cases. They also prevent vendor lock. It is important that interoperability is considered beyond technical standards:
- Technical
Standardized standards, protocols and APIs technically ensure the smooth exchange of data. - Semantic
In addition to the transfer, the same interpretation of data must also be ensured. Semantic models, especially for digital twins, play a central role here. - Organizational
Good coordination between the data room participants is crucial in order to organize interacting processes effectively and make them accessible. This ensures that collaboration between different organizations functions smoothly. - Regulatory/normative
Compliance: agreement on common regulations, such as a common legal space and standards/norms, forms the basis here.
Transparency
Open data flows and processes, transparent governance models and clearly defined responsibilities ensure that all parties involved have clear information about the origin, processing and use of data.
Sovereignity & self-determination
An open and transparent data infrastructure based on a decentralized (federated) approach puts control back in the hands of the data owners.
Data protection & security
The protection of sensitive business data is our top priority. High security standards, the federated approach, openness and transparency paired with governance offer security and control and create trust.
Innovativ, sustainable & economical
The data infrastructure facilitates the development of innovative data-driven business models and conserves resources.
The diversity of data spaces
There is no ‘one size fits all’ when it comes to data spaces. Industry-specific data spaces have evolved due to the diversity of use cases, standards and legal bases:
Catena-X
Connectivity the automotive industry – including small suppliers and tier 1 right up to large OEMs – in order to benefit from use cases such as parts traceability or product carbon footprint.
Mobility Data Space
The Mobility Data Space creates an open data space which offers access to secure sharing and usage of real-time traffic data and sensitive mobility data, and links existing data platforms to provide comprehensive mobility data on a national level.
Manufacturing-X
Data space technology is designed to enable standardised, automated data sharing particularly in Industry 4.0 and smart factories. Examples include Factory-X, Health-Track-X and Aerospace-X.
HEALTH-X dataLOFT
A patient-centric project enabling transparent access and control over personal health data. The objective is to develop innovative business models and applications in the healthcare sector in compliance with Gaia-X standards.
More than 20 additional data rooms
GaiaMed, EONA-X, OpenGPT-X, and much more.
