Data Model
Within the I-Card Service's RPPS Package are some components that persist data objects on behalf of the user. These include user account data, the users set of cards, and other data. Some components use IdAS to persist their data. Others manage their own local data stores "above" IdAS. We call this data model "Personal Data Model 1.0".
