3. 1. Why a new EDAMIS ?

4. Why a new EDAMIS?
New business requirements coming from ESS Vision 2020

5. Data Exchange in the ESS
European Statistics are produced by Eurostat alone. The production of European Statistics is only possible thanks to the exchange of statistical data between the organisations that are part of the European Statistical System (ESS).

6. Data Exchange in the ESS
In order to perform the exchange of data, organisations in the ESS need an IT infrastructure than can transmit big amounts of data, in a secure way, between organisations. The first objective of the ESDEN project is to provide this secure IT network.

"Modernisation of the data exchange services across the ESS, increasing the data exchange capacity and upgrading the security to allow a more efficient and secure data exchange in the ESS"
