CKAN
CKAN makes it easy to publish, share and find data. It provides a powerful database for cataloging and storing datasets, with an intuitive web front-end and a powerful (web) API. The core functionality can be flexibly extended with the features you need – from social integration and comments, to Google Analytics, to integrated data storage as well as existing modules for CMS integration for e.g. WordPress. See the CKAN Website for more information.
