Unlock the value of high quality data across Europe

LUMI AI Factory Data Lab

LUMI AI Factory Data Lab is a comprehensive set of services designed to help researchers, innovators, and industry partners accelerate AI development by turning high-quality data into real impact. At its core, the Data Lab brings together curated datasets, advanced tooling, and expert support, all tightly integrated with world-class high-performance computing (HPC). By lowering the barriers to accessing and managing data, the service enables users across Europe to focus on what matters most: building, testing, and scaling AI solutions.

A cornerstone of the Data Lab offering is Dataset‑as‑a‑Service (DaaS). This service provides fast, reliable access to curated, ethically managed, AI-ready datasets located close to LUMI’s powerful compute resources. Users can easily browse a public catalogue, apply for access, and begin working with datasets without the overhead of data acquisition, cleaning, or infrastructure setup. With clear terms of use and expert guidance, DaaS empowers users to rapidly prototype ideas, experiment at scale, and combine high-quality shared data with their own datasets in a secure and flexible environment.

For data providers, Dataset‑as‑a‑Service offers a trusted and high-visibility platform to share valuable datasets, either openly or with restrictions, with Europe’s leading AI and research communities. In this way, LUMI AI Factory Data Lab not only delivers data – it creates a vibrant ecosystem where data value is amplified through collaboration and innovation.

The service category is designed for users with an intermediate level of expertise. It supports a wide range of users who are ready to leverage high-quality data effectively – from researchers and developers to organizations seeking to build or scale AI solutions. The data is immediately accessible without mandatory human interaction, allowing users to get started quickly, while expert support remains available whenever needed to guide data usage, ensure best practices, and help maximise outcomes.
