Middleware Service

A Middleware Service refers to the software layer that connects different components of the data infrastructure. It supports data processing, transformation, and interoperability between systems. Middleware services can include APIs, data transformation tools, and integrations that allow other community services (like the data portal or metadata catalog) to communicate effectively. Middleware is essential for enabling seamless data sharing and interaction among different tools, databases, and applications in the ecosystem. APIs to middleware services may be directly used within workflows of data users, e.g. in their processing application.
