Towards a Research Data Commons in the German National Research Data Infrastructure NFDI: Vision, Governance, Architecture

The concept of a "Research Data Commons" (RDC) established itself as an infrastructure ecosystem for science based on open standards and federated resources to facilitate the sharing of research data and services. The consortia of the German National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI) have identified the collaborative provisioning of resources and services to be of key importance for a functioning and efficient RDC and are leveraging different corresponding measures to establish a sustainable concept in line with international developments.
