PomBase, the model organism database (MOD) for *Schizosaccharomyces pombe* (fission yeast), has been awarded Global Core Biodata Resource (GCBR) status by the Global Biodata Coalition (GBC). This review highlights PomBase's growth and improvements over the past two years, focusing on scientific quality, comprehensiveness, accelerating science, user stories, and collaborations. PomBase provides a comprehensive knowledgebase that supports researchers and the broader scientific community through detailed curation, standardization, and integration of molecular data. The database features a sophisticated query tool and offers organism and domain-level overviews. PomBase's curated resources have been widely used in various studies, including those on heterochromatin spreading, mitotic spindle dynamics, and epigenetic pathways. The review also discusses PomBase's collaboration with other biodata resources, data sharing, and contributions to global standards. Despite challenges in quantifying impact, PomBase continues to enhance its services and support the scientific community, aiming to improve sustainability and integrate with other resources.PomBase, the model organism database (MOD) for *Schizosaccharomyces pombe* (fission yeast), has been awarded Global Core Biodata Resource (GCBR) status by the Global Biodata Coalition (GBC).
