This server hosts the production Ontoserver service for the Service Unit Terminological Services.
Please send comments about this service and the resources on the server via the Zulip chat linked below.
Authentication to the service is two-fold. To allow read-only access, you will need to present an appropiate client certificate issued from the GEANT chain to parties in Germany. We allow the fingerprints listed here, and we require that the DN of your certificate shows that the certificate was issued to a German party. This is a requirement in our terms of service for Ontoserver that we have to enforce.
Once you present a certificate, you will be able to read resources on the server. You will, however, not be able to write to the server, for this, strong authorization and authentication using our OIDC service is required. At this time, we will not issue any credentials to write outside of the SU-TermServ project for this server.
At this time, we don't support IP-based authentication for this service. If you require a certificate, but can't request one from your organization, please contact us so we can issue you with a certificate from our internal Certificate Authority.
The FHIR endpoint is available at:
https://ontoserver.mii-termserv.de/fhir.
OntoCommand is a simple web interface to inspect the resources available on the server. You will not be able to change any resources without suitable authorization. The web interface is available at this link.
Shrimp is a web interface to inspect CodeSystem hierarchy, and can also be used to visualize ValueSet resources. It is available at this link.
The new deployment is entirely based on FHIR packages. Loose resource will no longer be uploaded to
the new server. The packages used to populate the server are available from our GitLab-based package
registry at
https://gitlab.com/groups/mii-termserv/fhir-resources/-/packages, with the associated repositories being available
from GitLab.
The packages uploaded to our server are made transparent using the recently-published
Canonical Resources Management Infrastructure Implementation Guide (CRMI IG). The package feed according to the
CRMI Distribution Spec
is available at
https://ontoserver.mii-termserv.de/crmi/syndication.xml, and we provide an interactive frontend that also makes the dependencies between our packages transparent.
These services are provided by an open-source API
that we have developed.
Snapper is an editor for FHIR terminology resources. While you will not be able to upload content to this server, it may be helpful to view the definition of resources. It is available at this link.
Ontoserver generate its own syndication feed. This is available at
https://ontoserver.mii-termserv.de/synd/syndication.xml. All resources available on the server are included in this feed. You need to authenticate using
mTLS to read the syndication feed and download resources referenced here.
