The project "sciebo Research Data Services (II) – Research Data Management Services and Tools for Scientists" aims to provide particularly low-threshold services for the management of research data, in order to reduce the effort on the part of the scientists, increase the acceptance of professional research data management, and meet the requirements of external sources and sponsors. Sciebo RDS is based on sciebo, a cloud storage service which has been run jointly by 25 universities and Forschungszentrum Jülich since 2015 and is already used by about 90,000 university members. Scientists use sciebo to collaborate in research projects and to exchange research data. As a familiar and intuitively used service, sciebo lends itself for the introduction of a structured research data management, and its range of tools should be extended accordingly. However, it is explicitly emphasized that there is no intention to build an additional repository for research data or create other services in the sense of a virtual research environment. Rather, sciebo is to be developed further in such a way that existing repositories and services can be connected or integrated. Thus, the project’s goal is to create a bridge between sciebo as a working environment and the permanent storage in established exchange, archiving and publishing services within the access domain (see Curation Domain Model). For this purpose, RDM functionalities, external research data services (e.g. CLARIN-D, Zenodo, Research Data Management Organiser), and external expert tools (e.g. oXygen, Lightroom) are to be integrated, connected or adapted for sciebo.
