D5.2.1 EUDAT Early Candidate Services
The EUDAT project is developing a collaborative data infrastructure (CDI) for European research communities. These user communities play a prominent role in defining the CDI. They are actively involved in gathering the requirements for this CDI, and in building and shaping the common data services (which will be deployed and operated at the service provider partner sites). This requirements analysis and development process is the backbone of EUDAT.
