Linked Data Event Streams for Data aggregation
Podrobnosti o kurze
This online course introduces Linked Data Event Streams
(LDES), a modern publishing approach for exchanging and aggregating linked data
across systems and organisations. Designed for a non-technical audience, the
course explains how LDES enables continuous data sharing through event streams,
allowing data providers and aggregators to stay synchronised without complex
APIs or full data dumps.
The aim of the course is to provide learners with a clear, practical
understanding of LDES, its core concepts and benefits, and its role in
supporting scalable, cost-effective, and up-to-date data aggregation in the
European data ecosystem.
Cieľová skupina
This course is aimed at professionals involved in data publishing, sharing, or integration in the public sector and related domains. It is particularly relevant for policy officers, data stewards, solution architects, and project managers working on data platforms, data spaces, or interoperability initiatives. Designed for a non-technical or semi-technical audience, the course requires only a basic understanding of data concepts and no prior experience with Linked Data Event Streams. It is especially useful for those seeking to improve data exchange, aggregation, and synchronisation across organisations and systems, including in cross-border contexts.
