SoloDB

SoloDB / Research platform

The complete context behind every experiment.

Connect runs, processes, equipment, people and results so research remains traceable from the first instruction to the final conclusion.

The SoloDB promise / 05

Built for the way research teams actually work.

01

Easy to use

A focused interface and powerful search keep experiments, process parameters and results close at hand.

02

Usable everywhere

Browser-based access across operating systems and devices gives research teams one shared environment.

03

Safe & reliable

TLS, configurable permissions and automated backups protect valuable research knowledge.

04

Shareable

Give the right users access to runs, steps and results without losing control of sensitive information.

05

Research-focused

SoloDB is designed around experimental work rather than forcing research into a generic business tool.

Connected by design

From first step
to trusted result.

SoloDB’s modular model follows experiments, equipment and organisational information without assuming that research always takes a straight path.

Runs01

Every experiment, completely traceable.

A run contains an unlimited sequence of steps. Each step records who did what, on which equipment, with which parameters and with what outcome.

Processes02

Build knowledge around how work is done.

Processes are organised by type and category, remain searchable, and keep their parameters, units, instructions and historical use connected.

Equipment03

Connect experiments to the real operation.

Model equipment, modules, trained users, reservations and live status so researchers understand availability, responsibility and context.

Results04

Keep evidence with the experiment.

Upload recipes, logs, microscope images, analyses, reports and presentations directly to a run or individual step.

Operational depth / 06

A complete environment for experimental work.

Start with experiment follow-up and extend SoloDB around the processes, tools and governance your organisation needs.

01

Substrates & experimental splits

Manage substrate properties and stock, connect parent runs, and record variations between process steps or sample parts.

02

Reusable experiment modules

Turn proven experiments into templates with default parameters, instructions and images, then create a new run in a few clicks.

03

Equipment workflows

Support training approvals, reservations, recurrent maintenance, responsibilities and equipment status—including links with an MES.

04

Process monitoring

Track expected values and characterisation results over time to spot process drift and unexpected behaviour earlier.

05

Rights & organisational roles

Grant access through roles such as team, project or equipment responsibility, down to the relevant runs and process steps.

06

Integration & deployment

Run SoloDB in the cloud or inside your organisation, connect LDAP or Active Directory, and adapt the interface to your house style.

Used in demanding research

Knowledge organised, archived and ready to share.

QuTech describes SoloDB as a practical way to organise, archive and share fabrication-process knowledge, while highlighting Jield’s flexibility, stability and ongoing maintenance.
