Statistical data and metadata management software for official statistics using SDMX
SDMX Statistical Data Warehouse
Fusion Registry 10 is a statistical data warehouse and data exchange for official statistics organisations who need to collect, integrate, store, process and disseminate aggregated data using the SDMX standard.
It consists of a number of modules centred on the Fusion Registry Core data engine, including Fusion Edge Server a secure high-performance data dissemination server, and Fusion Data Browser a configurable data discovery and analytics tool for data consumers and analysts. It also incorporates the same SDMX structural metadata registry as Fusion Metadata Registry.
Cloud and on-premises options.
SDMX Structural Metadata Registry
Fusion Metadata Registry is a free to use structural metadata registry to the SDMX specification for authoring, maintaining, storing and exchanging structural metadata including Data Structure Definitions, Codelists and Concepts.
Download and install the Java web application, or deploy as a

Innovative software for reliable, insightful and timely official statistics.
Fusion Registry is built entirely around the SDMX information model ensuring complete reliability and compatibility.
We understand the needs of official statistics organisations, so Fusion Registry supports all of the common use cases from collection through to final dissemination.
Fusion Registry's plug-in framework makes it easy to extend to cover any new use cases or requirements, for instance custom data formats.
Metadata (information about how the statistical data is structured and classified) is at the heart of everything enabling data governance, quality and automation.
Statisticians and data consumers want fast response both when exploring the data catalogue and executing queries. Fusion Registry is designed to provide industry-leading performance, and to scale easily as data volumes and demand rise.
Good statistics are only useful if people can get access to them. That's why Fusion Registry comes with a powerful web data browser tool for data search, visualisation and analysis.
Deploy on-premises for maximum control over configuration, integration and confidentiality. Or take advantage of Metadata Technology's managed cloud services for a cost effective and low management solution.
You're not just buying an SDMX software tool, but a continuously evolving ecosystem of products, solutions and services designed exclusively for the official statistics community by listening to the requirements of the official statistics community.

What is SDMX?
SDMX (Statistical Data and Metadata Exchange) is an international standard that aims at standardising and modernising the mechanisms and processes for the exchange of statistical data and metadata between official statistics organisations.
SDMX is sponsored by the Bank for International Settlements (BIS), the European Central Bank (ECB), Eurostat (the statistical office of the European Union), the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the United Nations Statistics Division (UNSD), and the World Bank.
