❄️ Snowstorm Terminology Server

Snowstorm is a SNOMED CT terminology server built on top of Elasticsearch, with a focus on performance and enterprise scalability.

Project Status

Read-Only - tested and already used in the SNOMED International Browser for ECL queries. Snowstorm can be used in local implementations to query SNOMED CT with the following features:

  • Hosting multiple extensions alongside the International Edition of SNOMED CT
  • Multi-lingual search and content retrieval
  • Fully ECL v1.3 compliant
  • Full history (depending on initial RF2 import decision)

Authoring - although write and update features are available this aspect is currently not production ready, having not been fully tested, so should be considered proof of concept.

Please add any issues or any questions in the GitHub issues page.

Documentation

Documentation is sparse for now, but will be improved as the project moves out of a proof of concept phase.
