TrunkDB is the new cloud-based version of ORDs (Oxford Research Database Service), which was originally designed to provide database hosting and manipulation services for researchers. TrunkDB allows researchers to create multiple versions of databases, share data with colleagues, and access data securely from anywhere through an online interface. It aims to support researchers by treating their data, rather than just the database, as the primary object and allowing various ways of organizing, updating, and viewing data over time through a versioning system. TrunkDB is currently in private beta testing with plans to launch publicly in June.
