Integration architecture is a crucial component of systems that manage the sharing of data and digital twins. It involves protocols for combining digital twins, ensuring data consistency, and enabling secure access.

The architecture facilitates the integration of various components and governs how digital twins are managed and shared. It plays a key role in providing a platform for consistent data sharing, emphasizing the use of a common Foundation Data Model and Reference Data Library. Additionally, the architecture focuses on security protocols, authorization mechanisms, and compliance testing to maintain data quality and accessibility.
