1 SDMX implementation in Istat: progress report Meeting of the Expert Group on Statistical Data and Metadata Exchange October 2014, Korea Francesco Rizzo Department for Integration, Quality, Research and Production Networks Development (DIQR)

2 Aim of presentation Stat2015 Istat modernization multiannual program Enterprise Architecture in Istat SDMX strategy in Istat Istat SDMX Architecture Funding Collaboration with other organizations Streamlining the internal workflow Capacity building actions SDMX in the National Statistical System SDMX in production state of art

3 Stat2015 Istat modernization multiannual program Industrialization and standardization of the statistical processes in order to overcome the stovepipes statistical production model Harmonization of statistical information Foster the efficiency and reuse of processes, and the reuse of collected data Raising the quality of statistics and reduce the statistical production costs

4 Stat2015: Enterprise Architecture in Istat Defines what the industry does and how it is done: Business Function Business Process Business Service Business Architecture Conceptual layer GSBPM Describes the information, its flows and uses across the industry, and how that information is managed Information Architecture Logical Layer SDMX GSIM DDI Other CSPA Describes the set of practices used to select, define or design software components and their relationships Application Architecture Application Layer SOA, WS, Tools Describes the infrastructure technology underlying (supporting) the other perspectives Technical Architecture Physical Layer Web Service and Databases on load balancing/business continuity

5 Stat2015: SDMX Istat Strategy

6 Implementing the SDMX strategy ( ) 1. From a tactical to a strategic approach 2. Design a suitable architecture that could satisfy the whole SDMX strategy; 3. Looking for the necessary funds to support the implementation; 4. Collaborating with other organizations; 5. Streamlining the internal workflow; 6. Capacity building actions;

7 From a tactical to a strategic approach SODI Demography EGR Census Hub OECD SIS - CC ESSnets collaborative sharing of knowledge and software SDMX for standardization and industrialization (Stat2015) getting experience from ESS pilot exercises SDMX Istat Strategy beyond the data exchange

13 SDMX in the National Statistical System SISTAN Hub Objectives and phases Disseminate from a single web application data stored in a distributed environment (data are not stored centrally but grabbed from the peripherals nodes upon request of the end users) End users could access and compare harmonized datasets (DSDs will be defined centrally by Istat), or navigate data that refers to a specific peripheral node (e.g. a Region or another SISTAN Institution) Proof of concept already started: Lombardi and Sicily Region involved Reused/adapted the SDMX-RI Web Client to simulate the Hub (it acts as a Dispatcher Istat Regional Offices involved for supporting Training already started Prototype in Central Hub Application under design (the development should start in Autumn)
