Description

The adoption of Open Science in data-intensive fields such as astronomy and cosmology requires infrastructures capable of managing, distributing, and enabling the reproducible reuse of massive datasets across geographically distributed communities. Addressing these challenges, CosmoHub is a high-performance open science data platform developed at the Port d’Informació Científica (PIC) to support the access, exploration, and analysis of large-scale astronomical and cosmological data.

This presentation will highlight ongoing developments, including a complete redesign of both the frontend and backend based on a modern technology stack, aimed at improving usability, performance, and overall user experience. In parallel, significant efforts are being made to enhance interoperability through the adoption of International Virtual Observatory Alliance (IVOA) standards (e.g., TAP, ADQL, UWS, and VOSpace), the integration of federated authentication mechanisms, and alignment with EOSC requirements and broader open science strategies. Recognized as a Research Data Repository and a key use case in the EOSC macro-roadmap, CosmoHub also contributes to training and education, fostering the adoption of open science practices in large-scale scientific data analysis.
