Description

The goal of CERN Open Data is to make experiment data available to the general public in a way that can be easily used and to preserved for the long-term. This comes with a set of challenges:
* The most important is to make sure that the data follows the FAIR principles: it should be Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable.
* That also includes the the long preservation of the data, and ensuring that it is immutable.
* On top of that, the volume of data can also be challenging. Currently, more than 5 PB are accessible through the portal.

This talk will present the current status of the CERN Open Data and its plans, focusing on the storage and access of the data.
