On 3–4 March, SND, SNIC, and SUNET organize a webinar and open forum to introduce and discuss the common API that's been developed for indexing research data. The API connects the SND system (DORIS) to the storage solutions at the Swedish higher education institutions (HEI), and makes it possible to make research data accessible without having them leave the HEI.
During the webinar, SND, SNIC, SUNET, and some of the HEIs, will present their experiences, technical strategies, roadmaps, and current statuses in implementing the API.
Welcome!
