Re-using public sector data with the Big Data Testing Infrastructure (BDTI), 4 July, 10-11 CET
Funded under the Digital Europe Programme, the BDTI aims to foster the re-use of public sector data and information, by offering European public administrations the opportunity to test and experiment with a wide range of ready-to-use and source tools. The BDTI is open to all local, regional, and national European public administrations which, by participating in the BDTI, can have the opportunity to experiment with open-source technologies, free of charge, for a pilot period of six months.

Which services are offered by the BDTI?
The BDTI offers a wide range of ready-to-use and open-source services in various categories: databases, data lakes solutions to store large amounts of data of both structured and raw unstructured data, development environments to perform data analytics activities on data that comes from external sources, advanced processing tools and visualisation applications.
How to apply for the BDTI?
Any European public administration can request a free-of-charge pilot project on the BDTI test infrastructure, by filling in an online form. To set up a pilot project and test innovative services, BDTI also provides various resources and support services which are available here.
Once the pilot project is approved, and the business and technical needs of the public authorities are evaluated, the BDTI technical team sets up a tailored cloud-based data analytics environment so that public authorities can start experimenting with their public sector data.
