# Interoperability Layer Openhim

This component consists of two services:

* Interoperability Layer - [OpenHIM](http://openhim.org/) for routing the events
* Mongo DB for storing the transactions

It provides an interface for: 

1. Checking the transactions logs 
2. Configuring the channels to route the events
3. User authentication logs
4. Service logs
5. Rerun the transactions tasks 
6. Reprocess mediator launching

OpenHIM is based on two 3 main services, openhim-core as a backend, openhim-console as a frontend and mongo as a database.

It is a mandatory component in the stack and the entry point for all incoming requests from the external systems.
