Abstract: A global data aggregator for managing deployments includes persistent storage and a global data manager. The persistent storage stores globally aggregated data and an algorithm repository. The global data manager obtains deployment aggregated data from a deployment of the deployments; makes a determination that a new type of data is included in the deployment aggregated data; and in response to the determination: performs an action set, based on the new type of the data, to modify a content of future deployment aggregated data obtained from the deployment.

Abstract: A data manager includes persistent storage and a data register. The persistent storage stores an identity chain and a data availability chain. The data register obtains data associated with an entity registered with the identity chain using a public key associated with the entity; obtains an object identifier associated with the data by storing the data in a data storage as a record; and records, on the data availability chain, both of: the record using a private key associated with the entity, and the object identifier.
