1 REACH-IT Stakeholder Workshop REACH-IT Architecture

2 Aims of the presentation Introduce to the architecture of the REACH-IT application from different, complementary angles Functional [ Use Case and Logical views ] Software [ Design and Implementation views ] Hardware [ Deployment view ] Introduce to the details of some important data flows supported by REACH-IT 2

3 Contents Functional architecture Software architecture Hardware architecture 3

4 Contents Functional architecture Software architecture Hardware architecture The Big Picture Integrating applications Key features Data flows 4

5 The Big Picture 5

6 The Big Picture Key characteristics Industry and Authority clearly decoupled Common data formats for interoperability REACH-IT is a web application Multiple applications at the Agency 6

7 The Big Picture Two applications, two databases Functional optimisation Clear role and decoupling No duplication of data Integration challenges Querying User management (security) User-friendliness Incompatible technology 7

8 The Big Picture Two databases For REACH-IT to function, data duplication is required Querying over both data spaces is problematic Annotations Scientific annotations in IUCLID 5 Decisions, opinions and comments in REACH-IT 8

9 Integrated application Desire to better integrate data and functions Better end-user experience using only one system [Web-based interface instead of Swing] Better security including logging, tracing and digital certificates Granular access (instance-based security) Less problems for MS to manage and run local IUCLID installations Most day-to-day tasks will be possible to do directly in REACH-IT 9

10 Integrated application 10

11 Integrated application Re-use IUCLID code Re-use IUCLID data model 11

12 Integrated database REACH-IT dossiers IUCLID5 dossiers 12

13 Integrated database REACH-IT decisions [aka Dossier annotations] IUCLID annotations [aka Scientific annotations 13

14 The new Big Picture 14

15 The new Big Picture What has changed: Submitted dossiers stored in the REACH-IT database Integrated application Unified user interface The role of IUCLID5: Embedded database Re-use of code and function Format interoperability Used as a specialised, separate tool 15

16 Raw data Messages REACH-IT Industry key features Joint submission Pre-registration Inquiry Sign-up 16 Organisation and user management Submission User interface Consultation

17 REACH-IT Authority key features User interface Dashboards and work lists Authorisation Dossier evaluation Pre-registration Restriction Substance evaluation Inquiry Inventories and annexes Organisation and user management Search Raw data Messages Sign-up 17

18 Data flows Sign-up Dossier creation Dossier submission Payment Decision Notification (internal message) 18
