@Scale 2019: Data Transfer Project – Expanding Data Portability at Scale

The Data Transfer Project was launched in 2018 to create an open-source, service-to-service data portability platform so that all individuals across the web could easily move their data between online service providers whenever they want. This talk will give a technical overview of the architecture as well as several components developed to support the Data Transfer Project’s ecosystem including common data models, the use of industry standards, the adapter framework, and more. We will walk through a core framework developer setup as well as how to integrate with the project and provide users the ability to port data into and out of your services.
