Mainly this has been a local file system, but recently attempts have been made at using open storage products and cloud storage solutions, such as Sun's Honeycomb and Amazon S3 respectively. Each of these solutions has their own pros and cons but There are advantages in adopting a hybrid model for repository storage, combining the relative strengths of each one in a policy-determined model. In this paper we present an implementation of a repository storage layer which can dynamically handle and manage a hybrid storage system. <br/> <br/>Description: 4th International Conference on Open Repositories; This presentation was part of the session : Conference Presentations; Date: 2009-05-19 01:00 PM – 02:30 PM Mon, 18 May 2009 22:58:59 GMT http://smartech.gatech.edu/handle/1853/28597 Title: Cloud Task Replica - Towards a Preservation Strategy <br/> <br/>Authors: Rodgers, Richard <br/> <br/>Abstract: This presentation will share our experience in the design of a replication management system which attempts to go beyond standard IT backup practices, which protect only against isolated, local, technical or procedural failures. The design attempts to model the problem in a manner flexible enough so that replication can be entirely self-managed within a repository, by a network of peer institutions, or service providers, or any combination of the above, or indeed evolve from one to another. It also envisions replication relationships among heterogeneous repository systems. The system utilizes cloud infrastructure and services for both content storage and replication management, and as such attempts to address some of the inherent scaling and resource allocation issues that typically accompany large replication efforts. <br/> <br/>Description: 4th International Conference on Open Repositories; This presentation was part of the session : Conference Presentations; Date: 2009-05-19 01:00 PM – 02:30 PM Mon, 18 May 2009 22:58:59 GMT http://smartech.gatech.edu/handle/1853/28596 Title: DuraSpace <br/> <br/>Authors: Kimpton, Michele; Payette, Sandy <br/> <br/>Abstract: The DSpace Foundation and Fedora Commons are investigating the feasibility and interest of a new service, DuraSpace, to serve academic libraries, universities, and other organizations in providing perpetual access to digital content. DuraSpace can be understood as a Web-based service that makes stored digital content more durable, manageable, accessible, and easier to share. A key design feature of DuraSpace is to leave the basics of pure storage to those who do it best and to overlay storage solutions with additional functionality. The service provides baseline functionality that begins with the ability to replicate and distribute content across multiple cloud providers. <br/> <br/>Description: 4th International Conference on Open Repositories; This presentation was part of the session : Conference Presentations; Date: 2009-05-19 01:00 PM – 02:30 PM Mon, 18 May 2009 22:58:59 GMT http://smartech.gatech.edu/handle/1853/28538 Title: 4th International Conference on Open Repositories Program <br/> <br/>Description: 4th International Conference on Open Repositories Tue, 28 Apr 2009 22:58:59 GMT
