The DFG project ‘Research Data Repository’ '''RADAR''' aims at deploying and establishing an infrastructure for both scientific data archiving and scientific data publication to support various research areas in scientific data management. Within the project a first low level approach will be developed which addresses basic archive functionalities. Later on, the offer is to be extended in order to provide an archive system which is adaptable to specific research areas and includes scientific data publication services. The project will use the infrastructue developed in the '''bwDataArchiv''' project.

The development of large scale archive services now underway. Within the coming years it is planned to enhance the LSDF with:

  • An Easy-to-use interface for deposit and update
  • Access to files via persistent URLs. Collections can be openly accessible or available to administrators only.
  • Support for specific file types and raw data
  • Permanent storage with tools for long-term management

Several projects have started to make this happen. The LSDMA activities within the PoF programme "Supercompting and Big Data" delivers input from a wide range of scientific communities and defines requirements for data archival and repositories.

Focus of the project bwDataArchiv funded by the state of Baden-Wuerttemberg, is the installation and deployment of the High Performance Storage System (HPSS). The result is a reliable yet economical mass storage system with interfaces for users and programmed tools. First users will be HLRS to store expedited projects, the LSDF counterpart in Heidelberg link and the GridKa LHC Tier1 center.
