Data for Distribution (TBD) - OMG DDS

Description:

This solution is used within the U.S.. It combines standards associated with Data for Distribution (TBD) with those for OMG DDS. The Data for Distribution (TBD) standards include a placeholder for upper-layer standards necessary to define the data (elements and structures) necessary to complete a solution for the information flow based on data distribution technologies. The data standard will need to include a specific customization for the desired data distribution technology used (e.g., Kafka, DDS, etc.).. The OMG DDS standards include lower-layer standards that support secure data sharing and command operations between remote devices.

Comm Profile: OMG DDS

Level	Doc #	Standard	Description
Access		Internet Subnet Alternatives	A set of alternative standards that includes any Subnet Layer method of connecting to the Internet.
Facilities	OMG DDS	DDS	The DDS specification describes a Data-Centric Publish-Subscribe (DCPS) model for distributed application communication and integration. This specification defines both the Application Interfaces (APIs) and the Communication Semantics (behavior and quality of service) that enable the efficient delivery of information from information producers to matching consumers.
Facilities	OMG DDS-RPC	DDS-RPC	This specification defines a Remote Procedure Call (RPC) framework using the basic building blocks of DDS, such as topics, types, DataReaders, and DataWriters to provide request/reply semantics. It defines distributed services, described using a service interface, which serves as a shareable contract between service provider and a service consumer. It supports synchronous and asynchronous method invocation. The Data Distribution Service is widely used for data-centric publish/subscribe communication in real-time distributed systems.
Facilities	OMG DDSI-RTPS	DDS-RTPS	This specification defines an interoperability wire protocol for the Data Distribution Service (DDS). It ensures that applications based on different vendors’ implementations of DDS can interoperate.
Mgmt	OMG DDS	DDS	The DDS specification describes a Data-Centric Publish-Subscribe (DCPS) model for distributed application communication and integration. This specification defines both the Application Interfaces (APIs) and the Communication Semantics (behavior and quality of service) that enable the efficient delivery of information from information producers to matching consumers.
Security	OMG DDS-Security	DDS-Security	This specification defines the Security Model and Service Plugin Interface (SPI) architecture for compliant DDS implementations. The DDS Security Model is enforced by the invocation of these SPIs by the DDS implementation. This specification also defines a set of built-in implementations of these SPIs.
TransNet	IETF RFC 768	IETF RFC 768 UDP	This standard (RFC) defines a connectionless, low bandwidth Transport Layer that is typically used with IP.
TransNet		IP Alternatives	A set of alternative standards that allows for the selection of IPv4 or IPv6.

Readiness Description:

Many serious issues. This category includes solutions that have not been standardized, or do not have a basic level of interoperability or security. Consider selecting a different communications solution or if this is not possible (eg. a pilot of a new application that has not been standardized), take additional measures to provide an acceptable level of security or interoperability.
