Looks similar, but isn't
- Not an instance
Manually pasting data between two CRIS systems is not interoperability.
- Not an instance
Two separate CRIS installations that share no schema or protocol are not interoperable.
Editorial commentary
CRIS interoperability is the technical and policy programme of euroCRIS and the COAR/euroCRIS CRIS-IR working group. It has three principal pillars: (1) shared models (CERIF) for what entities and relationships are exchanged; (2) shared protocols (OAI-PMH, ResourceSync, REST APIs) for how the exchange happens; (3) shared identifiers (ORCID, ROR, DOI, RAiD, Funder ID) so the entities being exchanged can be joined unambiguously. The OpenAIRE Guidelines for CRIS Managers (4.0) operationalise these into a profile.
