Agree with the earlier comments that it's a hard question to answer without knowing more about the usecases. It also depends on whether you want a data management system or a repository. But if you want another option, you could consider Dataverse <https://dataverse.org/> which is being used across a range of disciplines. For an overview of options, see this <https://dataverse.org/blog/comparative-review-various-data-repositories> (although note the URL) On Wed, 30 May 2018 at 10:34, Rory Macneil <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Hi Marta, > > Another good alternative is Starfish Storage > <http://www.starfishstorage.com/>, a comprehensive virtual file > management system. > > Best regards, > > Rory Macneil > Research Space > > On 30/05/2018 00:00, RESEARCH-DATAMAN automatic digest system wrote: > > There is 1 message totaling 44 lines in this issue. > > Topics of the day: > > 1.

A colleague of mine is leading a project at TU Delft evaluating iRODS, so any experience that you might have and could share with the use of alternative systems would be greatly appreciated. > > All best and thanks in advance, > > Marta > > *Marta Teperek, PhD* > > *T**U**Delft Library***|Research Data Services | Data Stewardship Coordinator** > T+31 (0)15 27 81 312 | M +31 (0) 63 40 81 427 | [log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]> <[log in to unmask]>__| @martateperek <https://twitter.com/martateperek> <https://twitter.com/martateperek> > > > ------------------------------ > > End of RESEARCH-DATAMAN Digest - 29 May 2018 (#2018-93) > ******************************************************* > > > -- *Andrew Treloar *Director of Technology | *Australian National Data Service <http://ands.org.au> (*Working in partnership with Nectar and RDS <http://www.ands.org.au/about-us/ands-nectar-rds>) Technical Advisory Board co-chair | *Research Data Alliance <http://rd-alliance.org>*M: +61 407 202 501 | E: a [log in to unmask] | W: andrew.treloar.net P: +61 3 990 20572 | T: @atreloar <http://twitter.com/atreloar/> | O: 0000-0002-8911-3081 <http://orcid.org/0000-0002-8911-3081> Monash University, Building T, Ground Floor, 100 Sir John Monash Drive, Caulfield East, VIC 3145 <https://maps.google.com/?q=100+Sir+John+Monash+Drive,+Caulfield+East,+VIC+3145&entry=gmail&source=g> <http://www.ands.org.au/about-us/ands-nectar-rds>
