Case Study: Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience simplifies data management with SURF iRODS hosting

Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience - Customer Case Study

The Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience (NIN) was challenged by enormous data streams from its sleep research, which were stored on an outdated, internally-managed computer cluster. This setup was difficult to maintain and posed collaboration hurdles. The institute sought a preferable and more cost-effective alternative for data management.

SURF implemented its hosted iRODS service for the NIN. This solution provided a secure, structured platform that facilitated remote collaboration with external colleagues and was well-integrated with SURF's computing facilities. As a result, the NIN migrated its data processing to SURF's infrastructure, simplifying its workflows with support from SURF's team.
