Dat is an open source, decentralized data-sharing tool for versioning and syncing data. Inspired by the best parts of Git and BitTorrent, Dat shares data through a free, redundant network that assures the integrity and openness of data. It uses cryptographic fingerprinting to generate a unique global link for the data. Dat includes a desktop application, command line tool, and client libraries in Python and R.

PublicBits

Data distribution for individuals and communities.

Users register data (small or Big) with PublicBits, which will publish that metadata, including a link to the original data, for public benefit. We will automatically register data from hundreds of available data portals. PublicBits users may offer their unused bandwidth to mirror their previously-downloaded datasets for others, as a public service. If the original source goes offline, the data will still be downloadable. PublicBits.org brings structure to sharing data, making it easy to find, manage, and re-use the data you use every day.
