Title:
RESEARCH DATA INFRASTRUCTURE IN CHINESE ACADEMY OF SCIENCESAbstract:
In 1986, with the approval of the State Planning Commission(now National Development and Reform
Commission), Chinese Academy of Sciences(CAS) started research databases project to promote data collection,
management and sharing, and this project has been supported continuously for the past 30 years. In 2003, this
project got fund from the Ministry of Science and Technology(MOST) as one of National science and
technology resource sharing service platforms.
With the fund of CAS and MOST, CAS research data work is fully developing, and research data infrastructure
is initially built, and all those achievements can be accessed by visited database portal which is www.csdb.cn. In
this research data infrastructure, research data is the core and surrounded by six parts, which are hardware and
software fundamental environment, technology system, standard system, service system, data application, and
some practices to promote data sharing.
Now the Research data infrastructure in CAS shares research data up to 655TB, and has 52PB storage capacity
which provides cloud storage and cloud computing service. The technology system, standard system and service
system are basically mature, and application of sharing data is remarkable.
Research data infrastructure in CAS is gradually formed in practice, and it is applied to other data management
cases.
This talk will focus on the research data infrastructure in CAS, especially on the research data, technology
system, standard system, service system, and some practices to promote data sharing.
