EU-DREAM D3.4 Data Management Platform

Abstract

This deliverable describes the technical foundations and integration approach of the EU‑DREAM Data Management Platform, developed under Task 3.4 between M4 and M18. The platform acts as the central layer enabling secure, consistent, and reliable data exchange across the EU‑DREAM ecosystem, connecting components such as the Data Platform, Digital Twins, Distributed Ledger Technology, NLP‑based intermediator, and other energy applications. It defines the overall architecture in line with industry best practices, European recommendations, and earlier system designs, while detailing the operation of key components including identity and access management, API gateways, and DevOps‑based deployment environments. The deliverable also introduces a reference infrastructure to support integration with external systems such as sensors, energy management systems, IoT devices, external databases, and Living Labs. Designed to be modular, scalable, and replicable, the platform allows components to evolve independently while enabling consistent deployment across multiple locations and use cases.
