It gives customers control over the data they create and want to share

Vendors create innovative solutions that bridge technologies to address real customer needs in an innovative manner

The nature of software allows for translatability in lieu of uniformity

Interoperability means Interoperability means connecting people, data, and connecting people, data, and
