does JKAN server host the data or is it just a list of links for data hosted somewhere else?

sorry, did not understand that from the docs, is this where the links are maintained:

Hi @ilarimikkonen 👋🏻 It's the latter: JKAN is a catalogue of links to data hosted elsewhere. The data can be hosted basically anywhere: an S3 bucket, an SFTP server, web server, etc.

If you're after something more complex, like an API for the data, I'm happy to offer some open source options for that as well.

Hi, thanks for a speedy response! this is exactly the type of an answer I was hoping to get. Please close the ticket per your process.

Sure thing. Feel free to reach out if you have any other questions or need a hand with anything! 👍🏻
