Cluster H deals with the technical aspects of the data lifecycle management. It discusses what services and interfaces the Data Repositories should offer to make permanently available a trusted and useful archive of research data. This includes a number of processes in the areas of ingest (data acquisition, metadata, quality assurance, etc), management of data and metadata (versioning on additions, corrections, signature, provenance trails, migrations, etc), and access (search, ability of quoting from arbitrary subsets of data, presentation, individual vs. mass access to data, etc).
For this purpose, similarities and differences concerning the requirements and technical implementations (Services APIs) in different disciplines and for different types of data (CSV, SQL DBMS, data streaming, file-based repositories, etc.) will be discussed and recommendations will be made.
