The Central Point of our network of repositories

Features:

  • Fed by ioChem-BD distributed nodes whenever a new item is published
  • Advanced indexing of chemical data and metadata
  • Very fast search engine implemented over Apache Solr and RDKit frameworks
  • Search by chemical substructure similarity, chemical elements or any text term

Featured technologies

XML-CML

The Chemical Markup Language (CML) is used as the only internal data format. No unformatted nor style information is stored, just raw XML data ready to be further processed.

Jumbo-converters

ioChem-BD takes advantage of our own text-parsing library to convert data from plain text calculations files into CML. We use the same semantics as Jumbo-converters library but more efficiently.

Easy to Customize

With little programming knowledge (jumbo-converters, XSLT) users can customize new file types, define new data to be captured and how it should be visualized, add metadata, and much more.

Create module

Web Service/DesktopApp oriented to handle and manage your files in a daily basis

Features:

  • Private storage area
  • Compact and intuitive interface design
  • Visualization tools
  • Graph/chart generation,i.e., Reaction Energy Profiles, Orbitals, Spectra, etc ...
  • Search by keywords, chemical substructure and metadata
  • REST API interface enables remote interaction and processes automation

Linux shell

A Linux shell client activates specific commands that enable interacting with the Create module from the command line.

This tool is specially crafted to manage long unattended data operations by using simple shell scripts.

Browse module

DSpace based Repository for publishing data generated by the Create module

Features:

  • DOIs and permanent storage for your published datasets
  • Plain navigation across datasets collections
  • Accessible end-points to third-party connectors REST API, RDF, OAI-PMH
  • Facilitates content syndication, data replication and data harvesting
