Information Mediator

The Information Mediator Building Block Provides a gateway between external digital applications and other ICT Building Blocks, thereby ensuring interoperability and implementation of standards, which is essential for integrating various ICT Building Blocks and applications.

he information mediator services ICT Building Blocks enables the service consumer or requestor to connect to the correct service provider through the introduction of a reliable set of capabilities. Information mediator services act as a channel through which external applications connect to other ICT Building Blocks such as registry services, terminology services and repository services. They process translate and log information transactions, as well as communication errors, between applications and other ICT Building Blocks. They provide the capability of services mediation and orchestration, which includes transformation, routing and protocol conversion to transport service requests from the service requester to the correct service provider. Information mediator services can expose standard APIs across the platform, reducing the need for each application or ICT Building Blocks to have its own API, thereby avoiding coding redundancy and accelerating implementation. This component does not stand alone, however; it needs to be developed in conjunction with other core components, such as registries, repositories, etc. By allowing different applications to exchange information, it can act as a mechanism to encourage or enforce best practices, clinical guidelines, and policy, in cross-facility Workflows and business processes.
