AB: The Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) is on track to launch in April 2008. Solar images in the extreme ultraviolet, the EUV spectral irradiance, magnetic field maps, and Dopplergrams are the primary data products of this mission. Each primary data product is produced on a rapid cadence. For example, some space weather products, suitable for use in ionosphere-thermosphere models, should be produced every 10--20 seconds with a 5--10 minute delay between observation and appearance in the data system. Derived data products, including helioseismic properties and active region tracked in various wavelengths, will also be available from the data system. As part of NASA's Living With a Star Program, SDO will release data to the public as soon as possible after receipt from the satellite. The science teams will make the data available through Web-oriented interfaces, such as the Virtual Solar Observatory, allowing external people to make inquiries and have data delivered to their site. We will present an overview of the SDO data system and philosophy.
