Purpose
NoodleBar & Keyper provide a standards-based trust service infrastructure aligned with the DSSC Blueprint, enabling secure and sovereign data sharing in European dataspaces. The stack supports data sharing interoperability and legal compliance through eIDAS-compatible credential verification. Keyper's Personal Consent & Delegation Management enables data owners to actively control who accesses their data. The Dataspace Admin has full transparency through audit logs of authorisation requests, participant onboarding events, and active policies. The stack is framework-agnostic and designed to evolve with emerging European digital identity standards, including W3C Verifiable Credentials.
About
NoodleBar & Keyper are a complete, production-ready and modular dataspace trust service stack aligned with the DSSC Blueprint. NoodleBar provides three integrated layers: Identity (authentication for every machine and human in the dataspace), Participant Registry (participant lifecycle management, verification, onboarding, and catalogue), and Access & Authorization (real-time policy enforcement and audit logging). Keyper adds Personal Consent & Delegation Management, enabling data owners to actively control who accesses their data. The stack is compliance by design, supporting European data rules and requirements. Framework-agnostic by architecture, NoodleBar dataspace solution has been deployed in production across energy, logistics, and construction sectors.

Details
- Technology readiness level
- TRL 9
- Domain / sector / industry
- Cross-sector: energy, logistics, construction, agriculture, and any sector requiring governed B2B data sharing infrastructure. The stack is framework-agnostic and has been deployed in the Netherlands under DSGO, iSHARE, and BDI governance frameworks. Relevant communities: iSHARE Foundation ecosystem, DSGO (Data Sharing Coalition), BDI (Basis Data Infrastructuur), and European dataspace initiatives under Gaia-X and IDSA frameworks.
- Geographical application area
- Europe-wide. Currently deployed primarily in the Netherlands. The architecture supports cross-border deployment via iSHARE Satellite federation and eIDAS-compatible credential verification. Target: European dataspaces under DSSC Blueprint, DSGO, Gaia-X, and iSHARE governance frameworks.
- Deployments in operation
- Production deployments include: • DVU - https://docs.poort8.nl/#/dvu/, https://www.datastelselverduurzamingutiliteit.nl/ • DSGO Construction sector dataspace | GIR - https://docs.poort8.nl/#/gir/ • BDI logistics dataspace - https://docs.poort8.nl/#/tsl/ • Interplant Federation - https://docs.poort8.nl/#/cgiipf/ All deployments run on Azure App Service with Azure SQL Server. Further deployment details available on request.
- Dependencies
- Infrastructure: Microsoft Azure (App Service, SQL Server, Application Insights, Bicep IaC). Runtime: ASP.NET (Blazor frontend, FastEndpoints API). Policy engine: Casbin.NET. Identity libraries: Poort8.Ishare.Core (iSHARE integration). Observability: OpenTelemetry, Azure Application Insights. Database: Azure SQL Server (production), SQLite (development/testing). external identity providers (Auth0, Keycloak, eIDAS certificates or other IdentityServer).
- Business offerings
- Poort8 provides NoodleBar & Keyper as a fully managed SaaS offering. The service includes: hosted NoodleBar instance (Identity, Participant Registry, Access & Authorization, Catalogue); hosted Keyper (Personal Consent & Delegation Management) with custom branding; onboarding support; technical implementation support; and ongoing maintenance. A workshop programme (Dataspace EXPLORER and PIONEER) is available for organisations exploring dataspace adoption. Contact: [email protected]
- Additional functionalities
- Beyond the core Trust service functions, NoodleBar & Keyper provide: Catalogue, a register of available APIs and apps within the dataspace (Publication & Discovery building block); Admin Portal, a white-label web application for dataspace administrators covering participant management, access request approval, and policy management (Participation Management building block); Self-service Onboarding Portal, a white-label portal guiding new participants through the registration process (Participation Management building block); Keyper Personal Consent & Delegation Management, enabling data owners to control who accesses their data via approval flows, a consent dashboard, and delegation management (Participation Management building block).
- Similar/competing implementations
- Existing DSSC Toolbox tools addressing related building blocks include identity wallet implementations (e.g., walt.id) and connector implementations (e.g., Sovity EDC, Eclipse Dataspace Components). NoodleBar differs by providing a complete, integrated trust service and consent management stack rather than a standalone connector or wallet. There is no known comparable integrated iSHARE-compliant Identity + Participant Registry + Access & Authorization + Keyper (Personal Consent & Delegation Management) stack in the DSSC Toolbox.
