# DataSHIELD
|
||
This module constitutes the infrastructure to run DataSHIELD within the bridgehead.
|
||
For more information about DataSHIELD, please visit https://www.datashield.org/
|
||
|
||
## R-Studio
|
||
To connect to the different bridgeheads of the CCP through DataSHIELD, you can use your own R-Studio environment.
|
||
However, this R-Studio has already installed the DataSHIELD libraries and is integrated within the bridgehead.
|
||
This can save you some time for extra configuration of your R-Studio environment.
|
||
|
||
## Opal
|
||
This is the core of DataSHIELD. It is made up of Opal, a Postgres database and an R-server.
|
||
For more information about Opal, please visit https://opaldoc.obiba.org
|
||
|
||
### Opal
|
||
Opal is OBiBa’s core database application for biobanks.
|
||
|
||
### Opal-DB
|
||
Opal requires a database to import the data for DataSHIELD. We use a Postgres instance as database.
|
||
The data is imported within the bridgehead through the exporter.
|
||
|
||
### Opal-R-Server
|
||
R-Server to execute R scripts in DataSHIELD.
|
||
|
||
## Beam
|
||
### Beam-Connect
|
||
Beam-Connect is used to route http(s) traffic through beam to enable R-Studio to access data from other bridgeheads that have datashield enabled.
|
||
### Beam-Proxy
|
||
The usual beam proxy used for communication.
