Research Data Alliance

Data is often metaphorically referred to as «the oil» or «the water» or, my favorite, «the light.» Whatever your preference, the concept is similar, data is a fundamental resource. And, like all resources, to ensure its maximum value, it needs support. Software and data are intrinsic. The work of Software Heritage will ensure that the value of data can be accessed, assessed, and reviewed in many, many years to come. With the current fast-paced and ever-evolving digital landscape,  the preservation of software code is of immense importance and immeasurable value. The Research Data Alliance is proud to collaborate with Software Heritage and to work together for the benefit of Open Science.
