Girder is an open source data management platform (developed by Kitware as part of the Resonant data and analytics ecosystem). It is both a standalone application and a platform for building new web services.

This will allow you to quickly begin test driving your instance of Girder.
There are also two other types of Assetstores: Amazon S3 and HDFS (Hadoop Distributed Filesystem).
If you have access to either of these, you can create an Assetstore using those credentials instead.
