Abstract
On March 11 and 12, 2024, the Spring Symposium of the GI Fachgruppe Datenbanken took place in Jena. The overarching theme of the meeting was research data management beyond isolated repositories, and it explicitly aimed to foster connections between the FG Datenbanken and the NFDI community. Talks and posters focused on incentives and hurdles for FAIR data management, interoperability and reproducibility, automated Data Engineering, and AI-based user support.
