The architecture described here shows how applications need not be concerned with the actual XML (or SDMX-EDI) or version of SDMX, but are concerned with interfaces offered by components that work with objects constructed according to the SDMX

14 -Such an architecture, known as a Component Architecture, enables applications to be built quickly and with minimal resource. As each Component is agnostic to the context in which it is used it can therefore be used by many applications (e.g. a Data Writer Component may be used in a database application, or an application reading a spreadsheet), thus reducing considerably the development effort and resulting in more robust and more easily maintained systems.

24 -The SDMX Beans underpin the framework and are what may be referred to as ‘domain objects’, ‘data transfer objects’, or ‘business objects’. The SDMX Beans are an Object representation of the information being exchanged. The information may have been exchanged in SDMX, EDI, or even CSV, it does not matter, as the SDMX Beans are not coupled to a particular syntax or version of the standard. The SDMX Beans are format and version independent allowing the software that uses them to be decoupled from the format in which the data/metadata are exchanged.

26 -Whilst “bean” objects can be created for a data set or metadata set, this does not scale well for large volumes of data/metadata. Therefore, the architecture shows a data streaming approach where the data/metadata are read or written directory to/from an input or output stream – this could be a local file or streamed over the internet.
