Base4NFDI - Basic Services for NFDI (PUNCH4NFDI)

通过国家外国直接投资范围内的基本服务，可以极大地提高国家外国直接投资内外研究数据管理的效率和无缝用户体验。Base4NFDI是一项独特的联合努力，得到所有财团的支持，以开发和部署此类服务。Base4NFDI涉及来自德国所有相关基础设施领域和所有主要研究机构的机构。由此产生的覆盖整个非外国直接投资的基本服务组合将使所有这些社区和领域受益。基本服务的目标群体是更广泛的非外国直接投资社区，特别是专业社区资源的经营者。Base4NFDI建立在两个核心支柱之上：1)在组织上，通过国家外国直接投资协会共同设计基本服务；2)在技术上，建立一个共同框架，为持续确定、促进、发展、运营和评估整个国家直接投资范围内的基本服务建立质量保证和协调一致的模式。本着支持国家直接投资的使命，所有关于基本服务的战略和财务决定都将由国家外国直接投资协会机构中的所有财团作出。一项基本服务需要对潜在的所有现有和未来的财团有用。在Base4NFDI中，服务被理解为技术-组织解决方案，通常包括存储和计算服务、软件、流程和工作流程，以及为不同服务台提供必要的人员支持。为了提出基本服务的建议，Base4NFDI将利用NFDI部门的专业知识。它们是财团之间就交叉主题进行交流的场所，结合领域知识提供基础设施和技术专门知识，并充当确定潜在基本服务的孵化器。在发展方面，它将依赖一个三个阶段的过程，即1)启动潜在的基本服务，2)整合基本服务，以及3)加强运作，成为基于国家直接投资的服务组合的一部分。Base4NFDI的基本服务将促进NFDI内部的互操作性和效率。开发将从身份和访问管理(IAM)、永久识别符(PID)和术语服务开始。通过这一过程，Base4NFDI将在2027年前为运营准备好多达10项基本服务。

Efficiency and seamless user experience in research data management within and beyond the NFDI can be greatly improved through NFDI-wide basic services. Base4NFDI is a unique joint effort supported by all consortia to develop and deploy such services. Base4NFDI involves institutions from all relevant infrastructure domains and from all major research organisations in Germany. Its resulting NFDI-wide basic service portfolio will benefit all these communities and domains. The target group for basic services is the wider NFDI-community and, in particular, operators of specialised community resources. Base4NFDI builds on two core pillars: 1) organisationally, a community driven co-design of basic services via the NFDI Association and, 2) technologically, a common framework establishing quality assured and coherent models for continuous identification, fostering, development, operation and evaluation of NFDI-wide basic services. True to its mission of supporting NFDI, all strategic and financial decisions on basic services will be made by all consortia in the bodies of the NFDI Association. A basic service needs to be useful to potentially all existing and future consortia. In Base4NFDI a service is understood as a technical-organisational solution, which typically includes storage and computing services, software, processes and workflows, as well as the necessary personnel support for different service desks. To generate proposals for basic services, Base4NFDI will draw on the expertise in the NFDI Sections. They are the loci for exchange between consortia on cross-cutting topics, provide infrastructural and technological expertise in combination with domain knowledge and act as incubators for identifying potential basic service.For development it will rely on a three-stage process of 1) initialisation of potential basic services 2) integration of basic services candidates and 3) ramping-up for operation and becoming part of the NFDI basis service portfolio. Base4NFDI’s basic services will foster interoperability and efficiency within the NFDI. Development will commence with services for Identity and Access Management (IAM), Persistent Identifiers (PID) and Terminologies. Through this process, Base4NFDI will bring up to ten basic services to operation-readiness by 2027.
