  Solar and Heliosphere physics are areas of remarkable data-driven
discoveries. Recent advances in high-cadence, high-resolution multiwavelength
observations, growing amounts of data from realistic modeling, and operational
needs for uninterrupted science-quality data coverage generate the demand for a
solar metadata standardization and overall healthy data infrastructure. This
white paper is prepared as an effort of the working group "Uniform Semantics
and Syntax of Solar Observations and Events" created within the "Towards
Integration of Heliophysics Data, Modeling, and Analysis Tools" EarthCube
Research Coordination Network (@HDMIEC RCN), with primary objectives to discuss
current advances and identify future needs for the solar research
cyberinfrastructure. The white paper summarizes presentations and discussions
held during the special working group session at the EarthCube Annual Meeting
on June 19th, 2020, as well as community contribution gathered during a series
of preceding workshops and subsequent RCN working group sessions. The authors
provide examples of the current standing of the solar research
cyberinfrastructure, and describe the problems related to current data handling
approaches. The list of the top-level recommendations agreed by the authors of
the current white paper is presented at the beginning of the paper.
