Set up your own ELN

To set up an electronic lab notebook (ELN) for your team, there are several options:

• Run an ELN instance on a local server. You can set up Chemotion , NFDI4Chem’s favorite ELN, on a server at your data center or your institute. This will allow your team to work completely independently: you can adapt the ELN to your needs, add device connections according to your requirements and manage users by yourself. For easy setup of your local instance, you may use a Docker container. Alternatively, setting it up from scratch gives you full flexibility. Find a detailed technical description here.
• Use an ELN instance hosted in the cloud. “ELN as a service” provides a convenient way of testing its functionality first. This option is also interesting for smaller teams who are concerned about the effort involved in setting up an ELN on a local server. NFDI4Chem is in the process of setting up Chemotion and some other open source solutions as “ELN as a service”. To learn more about when this will be available, please get in touch.
