3.6.3: System Interfaces
Identify Key Interfaces Between Systems Other Information:
Interface engineering in an environment of many-to-many exchanges requires an unrealistic degree of interface control and
an enormous commitment of resources. To facilitate interoperability within a community, COIs can determine the appropriate
focus and level of data standardization within their community. This decentralized, distributed approach to interoperability
ensures that key interfaces and data structures are controlled when tightly engineered interfaces are required. COIs will
register metadata that results from interoperability activities in the DoD Metadata Registry. Mediation services will use
the registered metadata to facilitate system interoperability between unanticipated interfaces as needed.
