From Research Data Storage (RDS) to DataStorage.nrw
Source: DataStorage.nrw
Coscine gives you the opportunity to store your research data using various resources. From next year, there will be a fundamental change: The new DataStorage.nrw will replace the previous Research Data Storage (RDS).
In this blog series, we would like to introduce you to the advantages of the new storage system, explain the process of applying for storage space and go into the details of the migration from the old to the new system.
Coscine – How Is the RDM Platform Actually Structured?
Source: Coscine.de
Researchers face the daily challenge of efficiently managing and accessing large amounts of data. Nowadays, data management goes beyond simple storage. According to the FAIR principles, research data should be easy to find (Findable), accessible (Accessible), interoperable (Interoperable) and reusable (Reusable). This is exactly where Coscine (Collaborative Scientific Integration Environment) comes in – a platform that supports researchers throughout the data lifecycle.
But what exactly does that mean? Let’s take a look at the structure of Coscine and explain step by step how the platform for research data management (RDM) works.
Coscine Passes into Regular Operation!

The time has come! Coscine – the platform for research data management (RDM) is moving into regular operation as of April 2023 and we are popping the corks!
Find out more about how Coscine came to be and what it means for you in this blog post.
Archive Migration – The Journey Continues!

Archive migration is probably what is called a mammoth project in IT. In addition to the enormous size of around 1.7 petabytes (PB) that needs to be migrated, some of the data has been stored in the archive for a very long time. This in itself is a great result and testimony to a secure and stable archive, but this circumstance caused the project team around the archive migration one or the other challenge.
FAIR-Data Spaces – How does locally stored data get into the cloud-based data space?

On our FDM blog, we recently shared news about Gaia-X and FAIR-Data Spaces. FAIR-Data Spaces is a cloud-based data space for science and business, made possible and developed with the help of collaboration between Gaia-X and the NFDI.
The project
- designs the roadmap for collaboration between the two initiatives,
- clarifies ethical and legal frameworks for data exchange between science and industry,
- develops common technical principles
- and demonstrates the use of Gaia-X technologies for making research data available and usable along FAIR principles in different scientific disciplines and industries.
But how does local data get into the cloud-based data space? To show this data space from a user perspective, we would like to explain the process steps and the technical background in more detail.

An insight into the work of a data steward
Nicole has been working as a “Data Steward” at the IT Center since February.
Among other things, she supports researchers in managing their research data. But that’s not all.
In this interview, she tells us what other tasks this job entails and how she experienced her induction at the IT Center. Read the rest of this entry »
Bye, bye simpleArchive – Life is simple, but not easy… or is it?

On October 5, the time has come: We say goodbye to simpleArchive. What this service has made possible for us and how you can archive research data in the future, you can read in this blog post.
Background knowledge on the research data storage

Coscine is a platform of the IT Center that supports researchers in working with their research data. Coscine stands for Collaborative Scientific Integration Environment. The pilot phase with the first users has started and will be used for user-oriented further development of the platform.
We are very pleased to be able to briefly introduce the platform to you. Have fun reading! Read the rest of this entry »
