Looking for a CKAN fact sheet to include in an institutional proposal

[tedstrauss]

I am pushing for an implementation of CKAN at the research institution I work for. As part of a proposal document, I’d like to include a 1-page set of facts about CKAN that will leave no doubt of it’s stature as the leading open data portal, and all relevant accopmlishments. The closest web page I have found is this one:

CKAN - The open source data management system

Is there any other web page or document somewhere that would contain this?
I’m going to start working on it, but I thought I’d check if it already exists somewhere.

Here are examples of info I’d like to include on the 1-pager.

• Founding year:
• Number of active deployments:
• Open source: # commits, # of contributors, # resolved GH issues.
• Number of extensions/plugins
• Top stats about the CKAN association
• List of major countries deploying ckan
• What is the largest CKAN instance?
• List of major institutional partner or deployments
• Average time to develop and deploy:
• Notable integrations with other tools
• Platform supports/incorporates the following protocols, standards, technologies, e.g. REST API

Suggestions for other things to include in this fact sheet?

• Founding year: 2006
• Number of active deployments: hundreds (possibly thousands) - tough to know exactly as open source
• Open source: see GitHub - ckan/ckan: CKAN is an open-source DMS (data management system) for powering data hubs and data portals. CKAN makes it easy to publish, share and use data. It powers catalog.data.gov, open.canada.ca/data, data.humdata.org among many other sites. (and please add back here)
• Extensions: http://extensions.ckan.org/ - may be more
• CKAN extension: have to check on site
• Major countries: UK, US, Australia, Germany, Japan and more …
• Major institutional partners: UK gov, US gov, Australian government and other major institutions have used deployed
• Average time to deploy: on a SaaS deployment via e.g. https://viderum.com it will be minutes. For yourself i imagine pretty quick with docker etc (1h)
• Notable integrations: people have integrated with things like wordpress, drupal and also supported from tools
• Platform support: hmmm - have to think but may be covered in repo info
