The '''Global Data Synchronization Network''' (GDSN) is an internet-based, interconnected network of interoperable data pools governed by [[GS1]] standards. The GDSN enables companies around the globe to exchange standardised and synchronisedstandardized product [[master data]] with their trading partners.

The GDSN is used as a tool to support high data quality through use of authoritative data sources, real-time data synchronization, and standardization of data formatting.

The GDSN is used as a tool to ensure that data exchanged between trading partners is accurate and compliant with universally supported standards. The GDSN consists of trading partners, interoperable data pools that hold and process trading partner data, and the GS1 Global Registry, a directory that helps locate data sources and keep messages between trading partners in sync.

The GDSN operates using a [[publish-subscribe pattern]] between two trading partners, each of which are registered with and access the GDSN via a [[Global Data Synchronization Network#Data pool|data pool]]. The GS1 Global Registry acts as a directory to point to the data pool where data is housed, and matches subscription to registrations in order to facilitate synchronization.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.gs1us.org/DesktopModules/Bring2mind/DMX/Download.aspx?Command=Core_Download&EntryId=569&language=en-US&PortalId=0&TabId=134 |title=GS1: Foodservice: Getting Started with the GS1 Global Data Synchronization Network |access-date=2020-03-05}}</ref>
