Data catalogues & hubs

Take Control of Your Data Distribution with a Health Data Catalogue

Ministries of Health manage vast amounts of data, accessed by diverse stakeholders. These datasets must be stored securely, with controlled access, clear dissemination, and robust interoperability.

Using data catalogues in healthcare settings saves time, reduces costs, and boosts innovation and productivity among staff and external partners. We specialise in implementing CKAN, an open-source, feature-rich data catalogue trusted globally by governments for efficient data sharing.

Drawing on our work with ministries and international agencies, we tailor CKAN implementations to diverse operational requirements—ensuring secure publication, stakeholder collaboration, and API-driven interoperability.

  • Findable

    Store and organise your data in an online backed-up catalogue. Search and filter the catalogue to find data and documentation of interest. Preview and query structured datasets to gain deeper insight.

  • Accessible

    Control precisely who can access your data and metadata. Data is encrypted at rest and in transit, making it far more secure than typical email distribution.

  • Interoperable

    Allow third parties to configure programmatic access for automated refreshing or system integration. Everything a user can do, a programme can do—via the API.

  • Reusable

    Create and manage metadata, including data dictionaries. Version and track changes. Subscribe to updates when data or documentation changes.

Who Are Health Data Catalogues For?

Data catalogues are an asset to organisations consolidating multiple data streams. Examples include:

  • Governments
  • UN agencies
  • Ministries of Health
  • NGOs
