Figure 1:
Data-publication-as-a-service vs data-publication-on-premises: both services feature FAIR data publication but differ in costs. The as-a-service model (A) costs a fee, involves delegation of data property control, and faces capacity limits in storage and data upload. The on-premises model (B) keeps data in-house but requires the availability of server and storage hardware as well as the installation of the e!DAL software.
