Dataflow and access

Dataflow and access

The SCN-P-XAWBELMOD machine is an isolated server without access to the Internet.

Several organizations, depending on the projects, will use the BELMOD environment.

KSZ and FOD-SZ will upload the data on the HD SFTP server in the BELMOD_IN folder. An automated process will then move the uploaded files to the BELMOD server in the corresponding BELMOD_IN folder.  

This data will be accessed via the Citrix machine SCN-P-XAWBELMOD for analysis by the researchers. The generated reports are placed in a validation directory by researchers. Only a data publisher can validate the data and move the file(s) to the export directory of the corresponding project.  

Afterwards the files will be automatically uploaded to the SFTP server BELMOD_OUT directory.

BELMOD Citrix environment

BELMOD Citrix environment

The users will access the Citrix environment through the VPN remote.healthstat.be making use of their provisioned accounts on Active Directory (AD).

The connection gets checked in through the Citrix controller (WIV-P-DDC01), then users get access to the BELMOD server where the applications are installed. These applications are used to carry out the analysis.
