DDC frames its identity around three lenses:
- Our Mission
-
We drive the modernisation of our computational & data ecosystems and integrate digital technologies across the REDs to enable our stakeholders, power data-driven science and accelerate decision-making.
- Our Team
-
We are a technical, impact-driven and highly collaborative team at the intersection of data, engineering & computation. We are embedded closely with our stakeholders and focused on delivering business impact.
- Our Impact
-
We design, build and deploy impactful, end-to-end solutions to collect, process & analyse data and supercharge workflows to enable stakeholders in the CoE and across the REDs.
Why DDC exists
DDC exists to enable data-driven science at scale, through four thrusts:
-
Reuse across the REDs — reduce duplication and fragmentation by building reusable platforms and capabilities that scale globally.
-
Supercharging Science — partner closely with pRED and gRED scientists, translating complex scientific needs into impactful digital solutions.
-
Seamless Data Flow & Unified Access — design and operate a modern technology & data landscape with seamless data flow, automation, and unified access to AI-ready data and models.
-
Modernization at Scale — empower scientists with AI-enabled workflows and solutions that increase speed, quality, and reproducibility.
