A Data Access Interface is a formalised contract—such as a REST API, GraphQL endpoint, or SPARQL query service—that mediates structured access to data stores, registries, or knowledge graphs. It enforces authentication, authorisation, and schema validation, decoupling data consumers from underlying storage implementations. In metaverse and spatial computing contexts, data access interfaces expose asset repositories, user identity records, and scene graphs to applications and AI agents.

Overview
A Data Access Interface provides a stable, schema-validated boundary between data consumers and storage backends. It centralises access control, version management, and observability, enabling heterogeneous clients to query and mutate data without knowledge of backend technology.
