PDS4
The next generation system, named “PDS4” includes a multi-year strategy that overhauls the PDS data architecture (e.g., data model, data structures, data dictionary, etc) and deploys a software system (online data services, distributed data catalog, etc) that fully embraces the PDS federation as an integrated system while leveraging modern information technology.
