Abstrakt: To understand and handle the COVID-19 pandemic, digital tools and infrastructures were built in very short timeframes, resulting in stand-alone and non-interoperable solutions. To shape an interoperable, sustainable, and extensible ecosystem to advance biomedical research and healthcare during the pandemic and beyond, a short-term project called "Collaborative Data Exchange and Usage" (CODEX+) was initiated to integrate and connect multiple COVID-19 projects into a common organizational and technical framework. In this paper, we present the conceptual design, provide an overview of the results, and discuss the impact of such a project for the trade-off between innovation and sustainable infrastructures.
