As an expert, we expect you to know what you don’t know. This means we expect you to mainly use the topics section of this knowledge base. On this expert-focused page we list resources related to recent developments in the field and resources that help you stay up-to-date on recent developments.
This video contains a demo of the winners of the Gaia-X hackathon, specifically the ‘cloud federation with Gaia-X for SME CSP’s based on K8s and Liqo’ track.
This document, authored by GS1, provides a preliminary overview of a potential architecture and set of principles for Digital Product Passports, based on the GS1 standards suite.
This document is an addendum to the Battery Passport Content Guidance v. 1.1, and created by the Battery Pass Consortium in collaboration with Global Battery Alliance ID working group. It synthesises the data attribute requirements and definitions, and can serve as a semantic basis for implementing the battery passport.
This document from the Battery Pass project provides a detailed overview of the content related requirements for the Battery Passport (i.e., a Digital Product Passport for batteries) in the EU, drawing mainly on the EU Battery Regulation. It provides a foundation for the technical approaches for the Battery Passport, a formal reference model for data collection, and a Technical Standard Stack to cover relevant technical specifications within the scope of the project.
An executive summary is also available.
This github repository from the Battery Pass project provides a detailed data model for the exchange of battery-related information across the value chain, based on the Battery Pass Content Guidance from the same project and taking into account the requirements of Digital Product Passports.
The Content Guidance is also available separately.
This document from the Battery Pass consortium provides actors in the battery value chain with a detailed picture of the technical requirements of the Battery Passport (i.e., a Digital Product Passport for batteries). It specifies the operative elements of the Passport as mandated by law, and towards its implementation in business realities.
The executive summary is also available.
This document presents the full findings of the Battery Pass consortium’s ‘Value Assessment’, and explores the setup and economic, environmental and social benefits of the Battery Passport (a Digital Product Passport for batteries) in the EU. It highlights the benefits for business and consumers, while also addressing implementation challenges, regulatory uncertainties, and practical steps for business and policymakers to maximise the impact of DPPs.

This document from the first edition of the Cirpass project defines an initial set of information requirements for DPPs for batteries, electronics and textiles sectors. It identifies these requirements by drawing on both, information that is mandatory to disclose by law and information that was used in DPP initiatives existing at the time.
This document from the first edition of the Cirpass project discusses the challenges DPPs are likely to face, specifically regarding enabling the identification of the product to which each DPP relates. It discusses the problems identification schemes must overcome to meet this requirement, and analyses several identification schemes to evaluate their fitness for this purpose.
This report provides a cross-sector as well as sector-specific system roadmaps for the development and deployment of functioning Digital Product Passport (DPP) systems that effectively supports the circular economy in the EU, specifically in relation to the batteries, electronics, and textiles sectors, and in the 2024-2027 period.
This document is an output from the first edition of the Cirpass project, and describes two parallel, yet interoperable architectures for the provision of Digital
Product Passports, based on DIDs and HTTP URIs. An updated DPP Reference Architecture from the second edition of the Cirpass project is forthcoming.
This document from the Cirpass project outlines the development of a Digital Product Passport system to support sustainability and the circular economy. It collects and analyses the results from other CIRPASS reports to define a roadmap for the DPP system in the short term and midterm future, specifically focusing on identification schemes, data carriers, DPP system components, dataspace integration, prototyping and deployment.
The second SWD provides updates on European data spaces’ status, including developments in EU legislative frameworks like the Data Governance Act and Data Act. It also outlines ongoing EU support actions and progress for sector- or domain-specific common European data spaces over the past two years.
The Data Spaces Blueprint 1.5 is a comprehensive guide provided by the Data Spaces Support Centre (DSSC) to facilitate the establishment and growth of data spaces. It introduces enhanced speed, future-proofing, and federated capabilities to support parties in setting up and maturing their data space initiatives. This blueprint serves as a practical framework, offering detailed instructions on integrating building blocks during the construction and operational stages of data spaces.
Our own insights page is filled with interesting information and is updated regularly with the latest happenings in the field of data spaces.
The text discusses the importance of data spaces and interoperability in unlocking the full potential of data sharing. It highlights challenges in semantic interoperability across data spaces due to varying vocabularies. The paper proposes using the Data Catalogue Vocabulary Application Profile (DCAT-AP) to standardize vocabulary exchange, aiming to enhance discoverability and facilitate federated searches across data spaces, ultimately supporting semantic interoperability.
Deze memo bevat een samenvatting van de Gaia-X Digital Clearing House (GXDCH) testomgeving.
A presentation outlining the lessons learned with the Structura-X Proof of Concept from the perspectives of multiple involved parties.
This presentation details how a consortium of service providers conducts tests on cloud federation and portability within a national test environment. It addresses customer demand for flexible and sovereign cloud services while discussing challenges related to scaling up.
This paper addresses the challenges of orchestrating workload deployment in the edge-cloud continuum and provides a taxonomy to understand different aspects of this process.
