Schematic representation of data flow between different storage systems. The example workflow shows transfer of laboratory result information through common stages of data processing and storage at UMG-MeDIC. The process starts with the HL7 file stream from the clinical systems, where the observation results are stored in a ORU message and the corresponding process metadata is collected. The information is pooled into a raw data lake. Subsequently the information is pseudonymized and transferred in a pseudonymized data lake. After preprocessing the information is stored in the data warehouse. In a final step FHIR resources based on the data are created and stored in a HL7 FHIR server.
