* <<CDM REST API>>: The {{{http://wp5.e-taxonomy.eu/cdmlib/rest-api.html} CDM REST API}} is a RESTful interface to resources stored in the CDM. The RESTful architecture allows accessing the various resources like Taxa, Names, References, Media, etc by stable URIs. The CDM REST Services architecture is functionally separated into four different parts, the API Service, a clean RESTful bit, which will expose data in a modular, normalized way. The Portal Service which is specially tailored for the needs of dataportals. The External Services are supporting non CDM applications and services like for example a map generation service, LSID Services. The Classification Service exposes special DTOs which combine data from the TaxonBase, TaxonNode and from the Classification entities.

* <<OAI-PMH>>: In order to allow central aggregators harvesting the CDM Community Stores the {{{http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/openarchivesprotocol.html} OAI-PMH protocol}} with selective date based harvesting has been implemented in to the CDM Community Stores. {{{http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/} BHL}}, {{{http://www.gbif.net} GBIF}}, {{{http://www.eol.org/} EOL}} or any other data aggregator therefore are able to easily pool CDM data selectively and keep their copy up to date by accessing incremental changes only.
