3. PREMIS/DPS 3 What is DigiTool? A repository to collect, manage and preserve digital objects Commercial solution Based in library and academic environment

4. PREMIS/DPS 4 Architecture Based on the OAIS framework The atomic unit in the repository is the file The file reside in a METS like container (Digital Entity) Clear separation between METADATA and streams Relations managed via the repository

5. PREMIS/DPS 5 Preservation Descriptive OBJECT PID History File Technical Persistent ID Simple Object Representation Each object (PID) can be linked to unlimited number of metadata records (MID). Metadata records can be shared between objects without data duplication.

6. PREMIS/DPS 6 DigiTool and PREMIS Ability to add the following to Digital Entity: Event entity Object entity Rights entity Automatically created Event entity – to record any change done to an object Object entity – to record the URN

7. PREMIS/DPS 7 Issues still open Better automation of the PREMIS creation Support for agents entity Redundancy (PREMIS, METS, MIX and DC)

8. PREMIS/DPS 8 What is the Ex Libris Digital Preservation System (DPS)? A world-leading digital archive capable of ensuring preservation and future access to the nation's digital heritage collections, designed for: Large scales of objects Different sources and formats Workflows for legal deposit by different producers Based on a proven repository architecture

9. PREMIS/DPS 9 DPS Background Endeavor (previously)/Ex Libris (now) and the NLNZ have been/are engaged in a partnership to develop an OAIS complaint digital preservation solution called Kronos Ex Libris and NLNZ have agreed to design and develop a new technology platform that will become a commercial product Endeavor (previously) and NLNZ established a Peer Review Group to insure the applicability of the solution to libraries in general

10. PREMIS/DPS 10 Ex Libris and NLNZ have signed off on plans to create the DPS Defined requirements for a preservation system Ex Libris has already developed core technology that Is in line with Kronos architecture Fulfills a significant portion of the requirements Can support the additional development of additional required components and functionality Where we are

12. PREMIS/DPS 12 Goals Build a digital preservation system that conforms to the OAIS reference module and the TDR requirements Build a commercial viable solution that will address the needs of national libraries and preservation focused projects Build a standard based accessible digital preservation repository

13. PREMIS/DPS 13 NLNZ Project Status Both parties together undertook a gap analysis process and have finalized the design Contract has been signed System open for acceptance testing of Phase I though 2008 Q2 System in production Phase I by 2008 Q3 Phase II one year later
