Abstract
GigaDB is a repository that links research articles with the underlying datasets, software, and metadata, helping to support open and reproducible research. As of February 2026, it contains 2,710 published datasets, covering 90.56 TB of data. Over the past year, the platform has been rebuilt to better support the growing scale of the repository and to improve data submission, management, discoverability, and reuse. The updated system is organized around four core modules: role-based permission control, dataset management, workflow management, and dataset retrieval. These improvements make submission and curation more efficient and transparent, strengthen access to published data and related resources, and provide a strong foundation for the future development of GigaDB services.
期刊介绍：
GigaScience seeks to transform data dissemination and utilization in the life and biomedical sciences. As an online open-access open-data journal, it specializes in publishing "big-data" studies encompassing various fields. Its scope includes not only "omic" type data and the fields of high-throughput biology currently serviced by large public repositories, but also the growing range of more difficult-to-access data, such as imaging, neuroscience, ecology, cohort data, systems biology and other new types of large-scale shareable data.
