Identity

A Data Consumer Scheme is given the identity DATA_CONSUMER prefixed by the Identifier of the owning Agency. For example, GOT:DATA_CONSUMER would refer to the container for all Data Consumers owned by the Agency GOT.

If a Sub Agency existed with for example the ID of 'WEST', the Data Consumer Scheme would be named GOT.WEST:DATA_CONSUMERS, if Data Consumers had been created for the Sub Agency.

You can seem more examples and information on Identities in this article.

Content

The act of creating a Data Consumer brings into existence the Data Consumer Scheme for the owning Agency. The content of the scheme is therefore all the Data Consumers owned by the Agency.
