Specification overview

Introduction to Health-RI

Health-RI is a national initiative in the Netherlands dedicated to building an integrated infrastructure for health and life sciences data. By improving data sharing, reuse, and accessibility, Health-RI aims to empower researchers, clinicians, and policymakers to accelerate data-driven healthcare innovation.

The following specification outlines the reusable architectural practices that constitute a composable data station. The specification is intended to be constantly evolving as standards and implementer needs change over time.

Specification purpose

The purpose of the specification is to:

  • Provide an overview of the architecture of a composable data station as a foundation building block for secondary health data sharing
  • Articulate the requirements of the components of such data stations
  • Articulate the workflows that are currently used implementing data stations and using the data stations within a federated analytics network
  • Provide a reference for implementers to use in their architecture and/or implementations
