Modern registers

Genuine digitalisation of public administration requires modern registers. We are bringing end-to-end digitalisation of public administration to the streets

Registers from the cloud with Register as a Service

Materna supports register-keeping authorities with a modern approach to registers and a flexible process model. The ‘Register as a Service’ solution is a cloud-based registry construction kit for containerised registries, offering highly secure operation in a sovereign cloud and registry queries. Authorities are provided with a solution for end-to-end digitisation, technological standardisation and registry modernisation.

Modern and networked registers

The modernisation of registers in Germany is a key project. Registers are organised at various levels, from the federal government down to local authorities. Specialised procedures and their associated registers must be interconnected nationwide in order to digitise administrative processes in an end-to-end, service-oriented manner. From a technological perspective, the register landscape is highly heterogeneous. Depending on the technical state of a particular register, extensive technological upgrading is required to lay the foundations for interconnection.

The solution: Register as a Service

Register as a Service is a cloud-based modular platform for the secure, standardised and legally compliant implementation of modern register solutions.

Secure cloud operations

 

Containerised registers enable highly available, scalable and data protection-compliant operation in sovereign cloud infrastructures.

 

Networked and legally compliant registers

 

The solution ensures compliance with the requirements set out in the German Administrative Cloud Strategy (DVS), the Online Access Act (OZG 2.0) and the Register Modernisation Act (RegMoG).

 

Standardised and future-proof development

 

The use of established standards such as IsyFact results in reusable, maintainable and sustainable register solutions.

 

Technological Basis

Register as a Service:

  • is based on modular microservices, containers and open standards, utilising a modern technology stack.
  • Includes clients for connecting to the IDA identity data retrieval process and the Data Protection Cockpit (DSC).
  • is NOOTS-ready and includes the Secure Connection Nodes (SAK) for connecting to the National Once-Only Technical System (NOOTS).

Smart public services through the modernisation of registers

We provide comprehensive support throughout the process of modernising your registers. 

1. Planning

Support with assessing the current situation, including a quick check of the registers to identify modernisation requirements, and, based on the results, joint development of a project scope tailored to these requirements.

2. Concept

Development of a modernisation strategy focusing on process digitalisation, technological standards, data protection and data security, and integration into the existing system and infrastructure landscape.

3. Implementation

Agile implementation of the modernisation strategy, taking into account existing interfaces and links to specialist business processes, as well as the integration of digitised processes into public sector workflows.

4. Commissioning

Support during acceptance testing and commissioning, and beyond.

Let’s go into more detail

We provide you with structured support right from the start – with tried-and-tested starter programmes, workshops and a clear roadmap. Together, we identify suitable use cases, assess the potential and lay a solid foundation for your first confident AI applications.

We develop AI solutions in such a way that you retain full control over your data, models and infrastructure. Depending on your requirements, we utilise on-premises, private cloud or hybrid architectures and avoid unnecessary dependencies on external platforms.

Yes – a key component of our service is seamless integration into your existing IT infrastructure. We connect data sources, business processes and platforms in such a way that AI solutions add value directly within your processes.

Thanks to our tried-and-tested workshop formats and starter packs, we achieve visible results quickly. Even in the early stages of a project, we produce concrete prototypes and ‘quick wins’ that provide direction and facilitate further development.

We work with a wide range of modern AI technologies – including large language models, assistive systems and AI-based data analysis. In doing so, we combine open-source approaches with tried-and-tested frameworks and tailor them specifically to your requirements.

Security, data protection and compliance are an integral part of our solutions. We take regulatory requirements into account right from the start and establish clear governance structures to ensure the responsible use of AI.

Yes – we see ourselves as a long-term partner. We support you in your day-to-day operations, continuously develop your solutions further and empower your staff through training and change management initiatives.
