CAD INASAN was established in 1980 as a branch regional center of the Centre de Donnes Stellaire (CDS). Since that time, the CAD has been working to distribute, create and store astronomical data according to the requirements of time, specifics of techniques and requests of the Russian astronomical community. At present, the staff of the CAD is maintaining mirrors of several major astronomical data resources, keeping a record of Russian astronomical data resources, and is working to create new astronomical data resources. Since 2002, we are the important part of the Russian Virtual Observatory project (member of the International Virtual Observatory Alliance - IVOA). The CAD archive is based on astronomical catalogues received from Strasbourg since 1980. Several well known astronomical archives and databases are also stored at INASAN (e.g. VizieR, ADS, INES, VALD). At present CAD coordinates work on the Russian Virtual Observatory (RVO) project

Strasbourg astronomical Data Center (CDS) is dedicated to the collection and worldwide distribution of astronomical data and related information. Alongside data curation and service maintenance responsibilities, the CDS undertakes R&D activities that are fundamental to ensure the long term sustainability in a domain in which technology evolves very quickly. R&D areas include informatics, big data, and development of the astronomical Virtual Observatory (VO). CDS is a major actor in the VO with leading roles in European VO projects, the French Virtual Observatory and the International Virtual Observatory Alliance (IVOA). The CDS hosts the SIMBAD astronomical database, the world reference database for the identification of astronomical objects; VizieR, the catalogue service for the CDS reference collection of astronomical catalogues and tables published in academic journals; and the Aladin interactive software sky atlas for access, visualization and analysis of astronomical images, surveys, catalogues, databases and related data.
