## Introduction
+
[SODA Foundation](http://github.com/sodafoundation) is an open source project under Linux Foundation that aims to foster an ecosystem of open source data management and storage software for data autonomy. SODA Foundation offers a neutral forum for cross-projects collaboration and integration and provides end users quality end-to-end solutions.
## What is SODA
+
SODA is SODA Open Data Autonomy. It is an open source unified autonomous data framework for data mobility from edge to core to cloud.

## SODA Architecture
+
+
SODA (SODA Open Data Autonomy) Architecture is getting evolved to realize a challenging goal of building a unified framework for data and storage management. It connects the application platforms and solutions to the backend storages seamlessly, be it on prem or cloud through unified API layer. This enables the application platforms to focus to build more valuable use cases rather than worrying about managing the underlying storage backends and data management.
The key architecture tenets are:

## SODA Ecosystem
+
The SODA Ecosystem has many projects under its umbrella, which work in unison to solve the various data and storage challenges.
Some of the important ones are :
- **SODA Dashboard**
-SODA Dashboard provides a front end UI which integrates with the different APIs provided by SODA API. This dashboard can be used to test basic SODA functionality.
