CKAN

"The Comprehensive Knowledge Archive Network (CKAN) is a web-based open source management system for the storage and distribution of open data. Being initially inspired by the package management capabilities of Linux,[2] CKAN has developed into a powerful data catalogue system that is mainly used by public institutions seeking to share their data with the general public.

CKAN's back end, the part running on the Web server, is written mainly in Python. The web pages it offers to user browsers include Javascript. CKAN maintains information about the data sets to be offered to users in PostgreSQL databases. Searches are implemented by Solr. CKAN installations can be queried through Web APIs.

Dataverse provides similar functions and is widely used for open data. DSpace is another alternative to CKAN for storing scientific data."
