Event summary
This Hands-on Webinar aims to showcase the sending of AS4 messages using eDelivery. During the Webinar attendees will have the opportunity to send an AS4 message and get real-time support.
Participants to this Webinar will also learn about:
- The Digital Europe Programme (DEP) eDelivery and how it's Shaping Europe's digital future
- An overview of the state of play of the building blocks in DEP
- The eDelivery specifications
- Domibus - the European Commission open source sample implementation based on the eDelivery AS4 profile that can be used to get familiar with the technical specifications in a test environment or can work as a solution in a production environment
The target audience for this session are technical representatives of policy projects interested in reusing eDelivery, and in particular Domibus, for exchanging electronic data and documents among public administrations, businesses and citizens, in an interoperable, secure, reliable and trusted way.
Please make sure you have the following tools installed on your (virtual) computer as they will be used during the hands-on:
- SoapUI - used to generate a SOAP message on the Web Service interface of Domibus
- Docker Desktop - used to start two Domibus instances to showcase the AS4 message exchange
(In case you have older versions of docker, make sure you also have Docker Compose installed)
In case you want to be able to also receive AS4 messages, you need to make sure port <X> on your (virtual) computer is reachable from the public Internet (please prepare and test all firewall, router and/or port redirect configurations in advance as it will be impossible to troubleshoot reachability issues during the webinar).

About the presenters:
Bogdan Dumitriu is the project officer in charge of eDelivery in DIGIT, responsible for the building block's technical specifications, sample implementations and various services. He moved to DIGIT in 2019 as a policy officer after having previously worked in DG Justice and Consumers to support the implementation of e-CODEX. Prior to joining the European Commission in 2012, he worked for six years as a software developer. Throughout his professional career, he participated in several small- and large-scale IT projects either in a technical, managerial, policy or – most often – mixed capacity.
Ioana Dragusanu has more than 15 years of ICT experience and has been working for the past two years at DIGIT on the CEF eDelivery project, helping CEF implementing Domibus - the open source, e-Delivery AS4 conformant Access Point. She has a strong understanding and practical experience in creating robust SOAP and REST web-services using J2EE technologies, SOA principles and enhanced knowledge on the B2B communication area, ebMS3.0 standard, e-Delivery AS4 profile, SOAPwA protocol, x.509 digital certificates for encryption and signing.
Monika Kokstaite is working as a Stakeholder and Communication Management Officer in DIGIT on eDelivery as an external consultant. Prior to joining DIGIT, Monika worked in various consulting, policy, research and education institutions on the European Union. She holds doctorate in Political Economy.
About eDelivery:
The eDelivery building block helps public administrations and businesses (and indirectly citizens) to participate in eDelivery messaging infrastructures which facilitate organisation-to-organisation messaging by enabling their systems to interact with each other in a secure, reliable and trusted way. The Digital Europe Programme currently ensures the funding of the services offered by the eDelivery building block as part of its policy of promoting the adoption of common standards in different policy domains (such as eJustice, eProcurement, eCustoms, eProcurement, eHealth, etc.) under Specific Objective 5.
About the building blocks:
The Building Blocks are standards-based open and reusable digital solutions that enable basic capabilities, such as trusted authentication and secure data exchange. They offer basic capabilities that can be used in any European project to facilitate the delivery of digital public services across borders.
Deployed alone or as a portfolio, the building blocks allow data to become the digital lifeblood of modern services, built on the principle of interoperability. The building blocks implement the provisions of the eIDAS regulation on authentication and trust services in the internal market, a global legal and technical reference in secure, trusted cross-border authentication.
The role of the building blocks can also be seen in the digitisation and innovation of market processes. Digital solutions that respect a common standard open up balanced competition within the internal market, along with the door to innovative new processes and a greening of old, paper-based business processes.
About the Digital Europe Programme:
The Digital Europe Programme introduced some organisational changes to the provision of cross-border interoperable digital services deployed under it. This includes focused efforts to support the digital transformation of public administrations throughout Europe.
The Digital Europe Portal is the home of the eIDAS enabler building blocks: eDelivery, eID, eInvoicing, eSignature and OOTS. It is the one-stop shop for information about the building blocks. The portal provides access to tools, services and software that can be used in any European project to facilitate the delivery of digital public services across borders.
