openBIS is an open, distributed system for managing biological information. It is being developed at the Center for Information Sciences and Databases (CISD) at the Department of Biosystems (D-BSSE) of ETH Zurich.

The main goal is to support biological research data workflows from the source (i.e. the measurement instruments) to facilitate the process of answering biological questions by means of cross-domain queries against raw data, processed data, knowledge resources and its corresponding metadata. The openBIS software framework can be easily extended and has been customized for the following technologies:
