DESY contributes its Sync & Share Service to the Helmholtz Cloud, for usage by Helmholtz and collaborators! The service, based on Nextcloud Enterprise, is an online storage service, to get easy and fast access to all of your stored data.

We are happy to announce that the Application Form for potential Helmholtz Cloud Services is now online available in Plony!

The HIFIS Software Workshop Program for the second half 2021 has been updated.

The Earth and Environment DataHub was one of the first project groups to use nubes as a sync+share service of the Helmholtz Cloud. Since then, the number of user groups has been growing steadily.

The HIFIS Transfer Service (HTS) has been implemented and is in use. Colleagues from HZDR and DESY were among the first to use HTS for the transfer and sharing of Datasets in the context of HelmholtzAI.

Recently, the Helmholtz-wide software development platform (Gitlab) has been extended with the ability to create diagrams from textual descriptions. This post will help you getting started with this new feature.

At the workshop Policies for Research Software held on May 6, 2021, over 100 participants from Helmholtz centers showed great interest. A productive exchange of ideas following Wolfgang Marquardt's welcoming address and the keynote speeches in four Zoom breakout sessions was initiated.

The HIFIS pages have been re-united! Yay! After some time of living separately, the former software.hifis.net and hifis.net homepages have been merged to one, as they should be. All HIFIS services - covering software, cloud, backbone and overarching services, are now being presented on one unified page. Check it out!
