 ===== The RDMS is an archiving solution =====
-The RDMS is designed as an archiving solution. Data from completed research projects can be stored in final and immutable packages for long-term archiving purposes. There are currently [[https://wiki.hpc.rug.nl/rdms/solution/multizone|two different zones]]two different zones for archiving: One for all non-sensitive research data (RUG Default zone), and a second one specifically for sensitive research data (RUG Sensitive data zone).

-===== Secure long-term Storage =====
-The RDMS can also be used for storage of scientific data that is not needed at the moment, but which will likely be useful in the (near) future by the same researcher as well as current or future researchers from the same team. Importantly, it should be emphasized that the RDMS is not meant for directly working on data.
 ===== Data enriched with Metadata =====
-[[rdms:metadata:start|Metadata]] can be summarized as 'data about the data'. In other words, metadata provides information about your data. For research data, this could be information about how, when, and by whom the data was acquired, as well as important experimental details, but also publication information if applicable. Metadata greatly increases the findability of data compared to alternative storage solutions within the university, such as X: and Y: drives, as the RDMS provides a powerful [[rdms:webapp:search|search]] that can also query for these metadata. Therefore, if a user wants to reuse data stored on the RDMS, including both own data or from team members if permissions are correct, metadata information can greatly simplify the process of both finding the desired data and providing important experimental details.
