It is recommended to use discipline-specific repositories for storing research data. If no appropriate subject or institutional repository is available, general (orphan) repositories can be used.
- Registry of Research Data Repositories
- Directory of Open Access Repositories (OpenDOAR)
- Overview of foreign data repositories (comparison): http://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3946720
- Most used general repositories: Zenodo*, Figshare and Dryad
* Zenodo is the European Commission's multidisciplinary repository for publications, data, reports and other digital outputs related to a research project. Each record is associated with a persistent DOI identifier.
