DataBolt
DataBolt is an automated research data teleport system created by Intersect to implement robust, fault-tolerant data acquisition solutions for research projects. The design pattern and associated configurable software is entirely adaptable across many different platforms. DataBolt Collection components are containerised to run within an individual organisation’s central, distributed and edge infrastructure, for data collection at IoT scale.
Why use DataBolt?
Researchers increasingly use on and off-campus instruments to capture large quantities of research data. Data movement from instrument to analysis environment is manual, ad-hoc, error prone and time consuming. DataBolt is a solution to this problem, providing modular data movement that reduces the administrative overhead significantly.
Automated, fault-tolerant, configurable and scalable, DataBolt reduces manual steps, maximises throughput and autonomously maintains file and collection integrity at every curation stage.
DataBolt Clients can be co-located closer to data sources to further mitigate acquisition risks.

Who is DataBolt for?
DataBolt is a platform used by researchers looking to capture large quantities of data, university IT services, data managers, distributed research teams and anyone interested in implementing a robust data capture system from instruments and/or remote sensors.
