+### The Earth and Environment DataHub use nubes, a Helmholtz Cloud Sync+Share Service
+
+The [Earth and Environment DataHub](https://www.helmholtz.de/en/research/earth-and-environment/cross-cutting-activities/)
+was one of the first project groups to use nubes as a sync+share service of the [Helmholtz Cloud](https://cloud.helmholtz.de).
+
+"nubes provides a central sharing platform for our DataHub Team with more than 100 researchers,
+IT-experts and stakeholders across 7 Helmholtz Centres.
+With its simple user management and Helmholtz-wide login,
+it is an essential element towards an interlinked research and collaboration infrastructure for the DataHub and beyond."
+says Sabine Barthlott, DataHub manager.

+
+Share files and documents Helmholtz-wide without additional passwords,
+links or login data: With the [Helmholtz AAI](https://aai.helmholtz.de/),
+using the Sync&Share services in the Helmholtz Cloud becomes easier than ever.
+The bureaucratic and technical hurdles are low for users.
+This is ensured by the agreements that HIFIS is currently organising at a higher level.
+nubes became a pilot service of the Helmholtz Cloud in summer 2020.
+Since then, the number of users increase constantly.
+
+nubes is a sync+share service based on Nextcloud.
+Here, group folders are made available on a project basis.
+Unlike many other sync&share cloud services,
+the data belongs to a project group instead of a single person -
+an advantage that can quickly become essential.
+Thus, it is no surprise that more and more Helmholtz-wide projects and platforms are using nubes.
+A prominent example is the Earth and Environment DataHub.
+
+### The Earth and Environment DataHub
+
+The Earth and Environment DataHub has three decentralised Hubs (ATMO, MARE, TERRA) that form an interconnected
+base structure and are also interlinked by well-defined working groups.
+The creation and sustainable operation of the DataHub as a FAIR-ready infrastructure provides data science in
+Earth and Environment a solid foundation for new insights.
