Description

The CS3 (Conference on Sync & Share Services) [1] is a community-driven event whose history dates back to 2014.
Its focus has shifted from the original exploration of various products for S&S services, site hardware configurations as well as the integration of applications towards the federation of various S&S instances in research and academic institutions, the support of scientific workflows and -most recently- the role of AI in further optimising and improving these functions.

This article summarises the content of the recent three-day conference at the University of Oslo [2] and aims to convey the benefits of participating in this community and its annual conferences.
