In this paper, we present the result of the analysis made on the Virtual Atomic and Molecular Data Centre infrastructure, following the FAIR Data Maturity Model framework defined by the Research Data Alliance. After recalling the technical architecture of the VAMDC e-infrastructure (Sect. 1.1), we will introduce the RDA FAIR evaluation framework (Sect. 2) and define the methodology we adopt to perform our analysis (Sect. 2.1). In Sect. 2.2, we will present the result of this analysis (the fine-grained granularity analysis from which Sect. 2.2 is discussed in “Appendix A”). After having identified some lines of work aimed at improving the FAIRness of VAMDC (Sect. 3), we will conclude with some ideas for further developments of this work (Sect. 4).
