Dimagi maintain an an open-source integration layer for managing, integrating, and sharing data between digital systems. This tool is used to integrate CommCare with other systems such as DHIS2, OpenMRS, and custom solutions. I provides a robust framework to write new integration adapters between system, and provides infrastructure for authentication, logging, error-handling and managing connections to partially offline systems. Dimagi provides integrations services directly and through our integration partners to build integrations between CommCare and other data systems.
The DHIS2 module supports sending both aggregate data (datasets and data values) and individual data (events) to DHIS2. End users may map data collected in CommCare to DHIS2 events or datasets. This allows the system to be flexible to changes in both CommCare and DHIS2, and projects may modify the integration without requiring additional software development.
Deploying the integration layer can also help other systems integrate data with DHIS2 through the same approach, providing long-term value as an integration and orchestration layer for health systems in the country through the OpenHIE standards. CommCare can be used for community level data collection and supervision, and other systems such OpenMRS and OpenLMIS can be used to support clinical or stock data workflows. These systems can all use a central integration layer to share registry data, and submit information to DHIS2.
