The aim of WP II.12 (IT-solutions for public data storage and access), which is schematically presented in Figure 1, is developing a central data infrastructure for the long-term storage of quality-assured, integrated, multi-omics project data secured according to FAIR criteria. The necessary data structures, as well as the interfaces and integration strategies, will be designed and implemented according to the project requirements. This includes customized data import, management and programmatic interfaces. A data curator monitors data quality according to the specifications of identifiers, vocabularies, formats and scale
This data is provided in an interoperable and integrated data warehouse infrastructure. The general concept of this infrastructure is shown in Figure 2. A central relational database system takes care of managing granular, operational data from experiments. Binary data is stored in an open and harmonized format in a file system. The project partner IPK will host both. WP II.12 will provide appropriate data storage capacity using a multi-tier file storage management system.
The result will be scalable and homogeneous access to all project data via a provided web portal. This will be achieved either by packaging and delivering the data for edge computing or by providing online access to the IPK infrastructure for client-server infrastructures.
