Information is mapped into common data elements that can be routed and utilized wherever required.
The purpose of the standard is to allow information systems within the semiconductor industry to use the same nomenclature when linking systems together. This allows for greatly reduced implementation time, cost, and more modularity. N-Able Group is developing the standard in conjunction with the SMDX gateway, a software linking solution based on the standard. The gateway maps data into the standard and passes it across the internet to a gateway at a different location. This approach does not require that data structures be modified in either source or destination systems.
