The interface operations can be logically divided into four main functional modules:

• Discovery module: used to discover resources metadata, either by means of catalog browsing or through a query operation.
• Session module: used to abort a running session or to get feedback on a session status.
• Access module: used to get binary dataset associated to a resource or a resource preview.
• Manager module: used to get catalog capabilities and settings and dynamically configure Broker.
