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.
