| Abstract |
The South African Radio Astronomy Observatory (SARAO) is excited to announce the forthcoming release of its digital repository for managing and preserving astronomical data. The repository, built using the DSpace platform, will allow researchers to catalogue and discover research data in a standardised way, while Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) through the Datacite service will ensure the unique identification and persistent citation of data. The data will be hosted on a Ceph archive, which provides reliable storage and efficient retrieval using the s3 protocol. We are looking forward to hosting science data from any scientist who has used SARAO instruments. Researchers will be able to apply to host their data on the SARAO digital repository service, which will be released in the coming month. This repository will serve as a critical resource for the astronomy community, providing easy access to valuable data for research and collaboration. With the increasing demand for digital preservation and data accessibility, we believe that the SARAO digital repository will set a standard for other astronomical institutions to follow. We are committed to ensuring that our data remains available and accessible for the long term, and we invite all interested researchers to participate in this exciting initiative.
