Is your biotech organization becoming inundated with data too numerous to catalogue or make any sense of?

LSID

Most biotech companies have recently become obsessed with computing solutions specific for biotech it problems, and one of the biggest problems has been solving the data organization and remote access problems of the biotech industry, which are unique in size compared to other industries. The Object Management Group has released a standard naming convention for data generated in the biotech world, called LSID, or Life Science Identifier, to help solve this problem. An LSID allows for biotech remote access of any properly named data through a resolution process, and groups such as UniProt, the NCBI, and the Genome Database have adopted LSIDs as a naming convention to solve their biotech it storage needs.
