Does not grant free access
Every access requires validated identity, accepted policy and formal registration. There is no anonymous or unconditioned access.
DATUM · Publication and consumption
Governed publication and consumption of data products
Publishing is not opening a table. Consuming is not integrating without context. In DATUM Data Space Gateway, every sharing operation is a formal, traceable and governed act.
Every operation is formal

Of evidence per operation
Publish
What it means to publish a data product in a governed way
A published data product is not a free replica of corporate data. It is a formal delivery with metadata, conditions, version and traceability.
01
Asset selection
The Data Owner identifies and certifies which asset can be published, under what conditions and with what minimum quality level.
02
Semantic enrichment
The asset is documented with external metadata: description, owner, version, granularity, update frequency and usage conditions.
03
Policy definition
It is formally established who can access, for what purpose, for how long and under what usage restrictions.
04
Publication in external catalogue
The asset is registered in the federated catalogue, visible to authorised participants of the ecosystem.
The principle
Sharing is not exposing.
It is publishing in a governed way.
Consume
How an external asset is incorporated into the DATUM circuit
An asset consumed from an external data space does not enter the corporate core directly. It goes through a governed process of validation, registration and assimilation.
01
Discovery
The consumer locates the asset in the external catalogue and verifies its usage conditions, metadata and declared quality.
02
Negotiation and agreement
The usage policy is negotiated and the agreement is formalised between the parties, recorded in the Gateway.
03
Governed access
The federated connector facilitates access under the agreed conditions, without exposing the provider's core.
04
Assimilation into DATUM
The external asset is incorporated into the DATUM circuit with origin traceability, quality validation and full lineage.
The principle
Consuming is not integrating without context.
It is incorporating assets with traceability and conditions.
Evidence and traceability
What is recorded in every sharing operation
The evidence record is the foundation of compliance, audit and trust between participants.
Participant
Who published and who consumed, with validated identity.
Asset version
Which exact version of the data product was shared.
Agreed conditions
The usage policy accepted by both parties.
Timestamps
When it was negotiated, when it was accessed and for how long.
Usage evidence
Record of effective accesses for audit and control.
Agreement status
Active, expired, revoked or under renegotiation.
What the service does not do
What this service is not and does not do
Does not eliminate internal governance
DATUM's governance over internal data is not affected. The Gateway operates at the edge, not in the core.
Is not a generic API
It is not a technical connector without semantics. Every published asset carries metadata, lineage and formal usage conditions.
Is not the European data space
It is a DATUM capability aligned with European frameworks, not the implementation of a sectoral data space itself.
