(4) Basic Requirements for Procurement :
The system consists of an on premises virtual infrastructure, a storage infrastructure, and supporting platforms that enable the analysis of various academic research data from this institute as well as external data, and the storage of large scale research datasets. The Academic Data Acquisition and Publication Platform System (RIHN-DAS), introduced in FY2025 to promote the collection and publication of academic data, was designed for relatively small datasets and prioritized efficient accessibility, including potential AI utilization. As a result, it is not capable of handling terabyte scale data. Therefore, in order to analyze such large scale data within the same environment without the need to transfer the data to local systems and to do so in a cost effective manner, this project aims to introduce an extended platform for RIHN-DAS.
