The Integrated Rule-Oriented Data System (iRODS) is open source data management software used by research, commercial, and governmental organisations worldwide. iRODS is released as a production-level distribution aimed at deployment in mission critical environments. It virtualises data storage resources, so users can take control of their data, regardless of where and on what device the data is stored. The development infrastructure supports exhaustive testing on supported platforms. The plugin architecture supports microservices, storage systems, authentication, networking, databases, rule engines, and an extensible API.
This webinar will provide a high level overview of iRODS: core competencies, policy, capabilities and patterns with a survey of production use cases. We will then move on to various iRODS interfaces, including automated ingest, metadata extraction and application, storage tiering, data discovery and differences in policy.
Jason Coposky is the Executive Director of the iRODS Consortium. He provides management and oversight of a team of software developers, application engineers, and support staff housed at the Renaissance Computing Institute (RENCI) at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
This webinar is co-organised by the Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC).
