Database Center for Life Science (DBCLS) hosts your database as a public scientific archive.

TogoDB presents a simple and quality database service. User can deploy a database within a few minutes.

TogoDB simply accepts tabular formatted data which can be easily exported from standard spreadsheet applications.

1. Obtain your own OpenID (or use 'guest' account for trial)
2. Login to the TogoDB system
3. Upload your CSV data and follow the instruction (sample file)
4. Customize columns and views (if needed)
5. Make it public or privately invite your colleagues to complete your DB

That's it! See the video tutorial and manuals (English, Japanese) for more details.

In contrast to its simplicity, TogoDB comes with remarkable features which many life science databases often lack:

• Highly customizable options including HTML/CSS/JavaScript codes
• All databases can be released as CSV, JSON and RDF (XML, Turtle) files with semantic annotations
• Built-in advanced search engine including numerical ranges and regular expressions targeting data effectively
• Database records are shown by default without requiring users to seek for appropriate search keywords
