Ref. https://www.gaia-x.eu/[Gaia-x hjemmesider] om Gaia-X som "A Federated Secure Data Infrastructure". Utvalgte utklipp fra {Gaia-X-architecture-document} følger her. The Gaia-X Architecture document describes the concepts required to set up the Gaia-X Data and Infrastructure Ecosystem. It integrates the Providers, Consumers, and Services needed for this interaction. These Services comprise ensuring identities, implementing trust mechanisms, and providing usage control over data exchange and Compliance – without the need for individual agreements. The Gaia-X Architecture document describes both the static decomposition and dynamic behaviour of the Gaia-X core concepts and Gaia-X Federation Services. Details about implementing the Gaia-X Ecosystem are to be defined elsewhere (see “Architecture of Standards”). At present, automated contracts, legal binding, monitoring, metering as well as billing mechanisms, amongst others, are not within the scope of this document.
