About

The Data Delivery System (DDS) is a cloud-based system for all SciLifeLab platforms where data generated throughout each project can be delivered to the research groups in a fast, secure and simple way. The CLI makes requests to the API (see badge below for link) in order to use the API functionality.

The Data Delivery System is developed and maintained by the SciLifeLab Data Centre. National Genomics Infrastructure (NGI) Stockholm has been a part of the development team during 2021 and early 2022.
