Features

  • Data model built around RF2. Thus, it natively handles SNOMED CT® and other terminologies that can be transformed to a ClaML or RF2 representation. 
  • Supports multiple terminologies and versions. This means the server is capable of handling non- SNOMED CT® based terminologies, such as ICD10, ICD10CM, ICD9CM, and ICPC. It also means the server is capable of handling and supporting SNOMED CT® extension use cases (such as the US Edition)
    • Includes support for delta, full and snapshot RF2 data
    • Includes support for ClaML data
  • Supports transitive closure (and in fact full tree position) computation and maintenance. 
    • Ancestor and descendant computations are simple lookups and do not require computationally expensive graph walking.
  • Supports a customizable authentication/authorization mechanism, including default implementations for native SNOMED CT® security architecture, and guest-only security.
  • Supports a customizable validation framework that allows testing of data states prior to persistence. 
  • Supports paging, filtering, and sorting at the API level.
  • Supports REST API for batch changes.
  • Includes a default release process for performing identifier assignment and delta RF2 generation.
  • Includes complete administrative, technical, and user documentation, and a swagger API for REST service documentation..
  • Flexible back-end data store. Default support for MySQL and uses Hibernate to facilitate connections to a variety of other database environments, including document-based and graph databases.
  • Supports IHTSDO Mapping Service Team workflows
    • Dual independent review workflow (e.g. "non legacy worfklow")
    • Review, QA, and "Fix Error" worfklow pats.
    • Provides opportunity to save work for later and decide when to "finish" or "promote" work to the next worfklow
  • Supports dual independent review by specialist with conflict review and management by leads.
  • Supports dynamic reporting and QA validation based around HQL, SQL, or Lucene-based queries.
  • Supports full audit trail so entire history of map records is present.
  • Supports a feedback mechanism for error tracking, communication, and management reporting.
  • Supports a "drip feed"-based mechanism for updating content terminologies in near real time.
  • No labels
