Abstract

This article describes Heimdall, a mature, streamlined, and highly accessible software solution for scientific data migration and transformation. It highlights some of its features through various real-world use cases related to aggregation, migration, validation, backup, sharing, and publication of research data. It concludes by describing how to add new features, for anyone who wants to save time and avoid developing their own ad hoc migration script.
