CoE-DSC aims to contribute to interoperability, defragmentation and acceleration for sovereign data exchanges. We see that the Dutch data sharing landscape is maturing, but individual data spaces and initiatives are often facing adoption and interoperability challenges. CoE-DSC puts efforts to support data spaces, data sharing initiatives, service providers and policymakers to create a interoperable no-regret path forward.
As part of the efforts, CoE-DSC team has created resources for various stakeholders on the topic of interoperability. You can find & download them on this page below.

MAMI Framework – Minimal Agreements for Maximum Interoperability
Welcome to the MAMI framework, which stands for Minimal Agreements for Maximum Interoperability. It is a concise list of co-created and broadly agreed-upon recommendations for data sharing that foster cross-sectoral and cross-border interoperability.
The document provides an overview of major trends and developments on the European level (North Star), followed by recommendations for data sharing initiatives (DSIs) and data spaces in the Netherlands to become more interoperable with one another and over time better aligned with the EU direction. The recommendations are split between (1) high level recommendations for making design choices explicitly human and (to an extent) machine readable, and (2) more specific recommendations across interoperability topics (i.e., Trust & Data Sovereignty, Semantics, Discoverability, Connectivity).
Next steps: as part of ongoing MAMI research, the next aim is to plot standards and protocols introduced in recommendations to show which are (a) currently adopted by major Dutch DSIs, (b) will be adopted within the next 1-2 years, and (c) foreseen to become obsolete due to e.g., sector specific dynamics. By doing so, MAMI sets the direction for other data sharing initiatives and service providers to follow and converge into a more interoperable future of data sharing.
