| Free tier | No published byte cap on the curated path; ICPSR states 'Anyone can deposit data into ICPSR's Consortium Archive at no cost' and covers curation from membership fees. Size is negotiated per study rather than metered. unit mixed; metered on unstated |
|---|
| Price | none stated |
|---|
| Identity | institution (placeholder) inferred from the category 'academic'; the source record states no identity cost, so this is a class assumption, not evidence |
|---|
| Egress | Free to users at member institutions; fee-gated for non-members unless the depositor buys five years of open access. That asymmetry is why this ranks below openICPSR for a user. |

| Per-object cap | not stated |
|---|
| Retention | not stated |
|---|
| Interface | s3, rest, webdav rest |
|---|
| Tooling | Deposit via ICPSR's submission pipeline and the openICPSR front end; DOIs via DataCite; long-term preservation with redundant backups and format migration. No S3/WebDAV surface. |
|---|
| Composes with | Unlimited studies per depositor, each negotiated for size; curation is the throttle, not quota. |
|---|
| Reliability | The most durable option in this space (60+ years, DOI maintenance guaranteed), but the slowest to write to and the read path can be paywalled. |

| Parsed numbers | |
