The OA Switchboard initiative is a not-for-profit collaboration between funders, institutions, and publishers to provide essential infrastructure to facilitate the fulfillment of open access strategies across business models, policies, and agreements. The OA Switchboard is the independent intermediary, connecting parties and systems, streamlining communication and the neutral exchange of Open Access-related publication-level information, and ensuring a financial settlement.
The core of the OA Switchboard is a message hub built around AWS messaging services like SQS, SNS and SES. This approach is highly scalable and secure.
