Data Access and Storage APIs support client access and back-end access to a range of structured and unstructured data sources available in the Data e-Infrastructure. APIs include remote Web Service APIs, local client APIs, data model implementations, auxiliary APIs, and development frameworks for service plugins.

This document lists all the available APIs in this areas along with their key features, pointing to external documentation for details on their design and usage.
