The Multi-Mission Facility Infrastructure (MMFI) is a framework for the ESA Payload Data Ground Segments common to all missions. It is an aggregate of components, named Multi-Mission Facility infrastructure Elements (MMFE), each one in charge of performing different functions, common to all the supported missions. The MMFEs cooperate to provide the functionalities commonly needed by the various missions’ ground segments to perform their tasks of payload data management.

The MACH application will be able to display this data using the above views to give the user a fast, yet complete, picture of the data.
The MACH application can obtain the MMFI information in one of two ways:
- via the LI SOAP (Local Inventory – Simple Object Access Protocol) interface (MACH Standalone Mode)
- via the OT (Operating Tool) using inter-process communications (MACH Slave Mode)
The MACH application runs on the Linux operating system and is the first application that Taitus developed using this platform by performing a port of the core Taitus libraries.
