Staying Flexible and Transparent in a Changing World: Agile RDM Service Development
Abstract: No matter which area you consider, the world is constantly changing, so requirements must be continuously adapted. This is especially true for Research Data Management (RDM), and particularly for RDM platforms like Coscine. The increasing number of users and external stakeholders, as well as the balancing act between maintenance of existing and the development of new features, represent just some of the challenges faced. In this paper, we illustrate how these challenges can be managed in practice to keep pace with current RDM trends and not miss important developments such as FAIR Digital Objects (Politze et al. 2025) or advancements in querying technologies like SPARQL. We also examine how our anchors – FAIR principles, organization and operational processes – help maintain focus, and what adapting methods to real-world circumstances can look like.
