Interoperability Layer Openhim

The interoperability layer that enables simpler data exchange between the different systems. It is also the security layer for the other systems.

This component consists of two services:

Interoperability Layer - OpenHIM for routing the events
Mongo DB for storing the transactions

It provides an interface for:

Checking the transactions logs
Configuring the channels to route the events
User authentication logs
Service logs
Rerun the transactions tasks
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.

Local Development

The Interoperability Layer is the base of the Platform architecture.

Accessing the services

OpenHIM

Testing the Interoperability Component

As part of the Interoperability Layer setup we also do some initial config import for connecting the services together.

OpenHIM: Import a channel configuration that routes requests to the Data Store - HAPI FHIR service

This config importer will import channels and configuration according to the file openhim-import.json in the folder <path to project packages>/interoperability-layer-openhim/importer/volume.
