The ORA Data Preservation Service – a lightweight, open-source, digital repository solution

Digital preservation, and data preservation, are key concerns to repository owners and stakeholders. However, implementation of system-independent, versioned, digital storage for digital repository content is often proprietary and financially expensive. Here, we present an open source, decoupled, remote solution for the preservation of repository content in an OCFL (Oxford Common File Layout) file system using the Fedora 6 Repository application to manage ingest and export.

数字保存与数据保存是数字仓储管理者及相关利益方的核心关切。然而，为数字仓储内容构建与系统无关、支持版本管理的数字存储方案，往往采用专有技术且成本高昂。为此，我们提出一款开源、解耦的远程解决方案，借助Fedora 6仓储应用程序管理入库与导出操作，可在OCFL（Oxford Common File Layout，牛津通用文件布局）文件系统中实现仓储内容的保存。
