Systems​

There are three types of systems on the Linksight platform:

  • Governance Hub (hosted at https://linksight.network): The component where data collaborations and data collaboration governance are managed.
  • Data station: The component where the datasets are managed and protocols are run together with other data stations across organizations.
  • Analysis Hub: The component where users interact with the data station to run data analyses.
