The Data Delivery System (DDS) is a cloud-based system for the delivery of data from SciLifeLab platforms to their users. It consists of a command line interface (CLI) and a web interface. The web interface will be improved on as soon as possible.
SciLifeLab is a national resource, providing multiple unique technologies and expertise to life scientists in Sweden.
When a service or platform processes a project for a research group, large quantities of data can be generated. The Data Delivery System (DDS) is a system designed for the simple and secure delivery of this data from SciLifeLab platforms to their users.
The DDS uses cloud computing object-storage, provided by Safespring to store the data ready for download. The delivery system has built-in encryption and key management for highly secure yet user-friendly access to your data.
