Welcome to Swestore

In scientific areas such as high energy physics (the Large Hadron Collider at CERN), climate modelling, bioinformatics, and bioimaging, the demands for research data storage and research data services are increasing dramatically.

Swestore is a Research Data Storage Infrastructure, intended for active research data and operated by the National Academic Infrastructure for Supercomputing in Sweden, NAISS (previously the Swedish National Infrastructure for Computing, SNIC).

The storage resources provided by Swestore are made available for free for academic research funded by VR and Formas through open calls such that the best Swedish research is supported and new research is facilitated.

The purpose of Swestore allocations, granted by the National Allocation Committee (NAC), is to provide large scale data storage for “live” or “working” research data, also known as active research data.
