Cardiff University Research Data Repository (Figshare tenancy)

Cardiff's research data repository at research-data.cardiff.ac.uk is a Figshare for Institutions instance - the host CNAMEs to proxy-eu-01.figshare.com, and Cardiff's own DataCite repository client bl.cardiff declares both research-data.cardiff.ac.uk and cardiff.figshare.com among its domains. The datasets and the DOIs under prefix 10.17035 are Cardiff's; the API is Figshare's. Recorded as the tenant relationship it is. Figshare's generic contract is NOT saved under this slug - it belongs to all/figshare.
