Digital Preservation - Manage and Provide AccessMichaelPaulmeno
This document discusses managing and providing access to digital content over the long term. It covers several key points:
- Digital preservation involves managing content through its entire lifecycle, from initial creation through long-term storage and access.
- Effective management requires addressing organizational needs, technological opportunities and changes, and available resources. It involves designating responsible people, policies, and technology.
- When providing access, it is important to use proven, sustainable technologies and deliver content completely and accurately according to access policies.
- Legal and rights issues must be considered to ensure appropriate access to content over time based on factors like donor agreements or confidential information.
- Understanding current and future users is essential for developing access strategies
This document provides an introduction and overview of big data technologies. It begins with defining big data and its key characteristics of volume, variety and velocity. It discusses how data has exploded in recent years and examples of large scale data sources. It then covers popular big data tools and technologies like Hadoop and MapReduce. The document discusses how to get started with big data and learning related skills. Finally, it provides examples of big data projects and discusses the objectives and benefits of working with big data.
Rapid progress in information technology and electronic communications in the last few decades have profound impact on the way we gather, store, disseminate and consume information. Methodologies and tools for converting information to knowledge have also been very successful. All these have put a lot of pressure on traditional content storehouses like libraries to harness the new technologies for the benefits of their users.
Since Universities around the world own most of these libraries, they have been trying to embrace these newer technologies and have devised suitable methods that are beneficial to their users. They have created a new category of content called e-resources out of all forms of electronic documents and media. In the last few years, investments in these e-resources have increased many folds. Groups of universities have come together to collaboratively address the situation. In many cases, including India, Governments have also funded much of these efforts.
There are parallel efforts of creating additional knowledge resources by individuals for the consumption of individuals. In fact, the volume of effort in this area has been so large that lot of younger people are beginning to break away from traditional library and university system and greatly depend on these open sources. Proliferation of sources like Google, YouTube, Edx, Moocs and ResearchGate have been nothing short of explosive and has perhaps created the largest knowledge democracy.
In this talk, we look at the much of these developments, their implications and discuss a few use cases.
We have also suggested an architecture based on contemporary IT scenarios that will help to plan and setup an e-Resources infrastructure in a University that may be making efforts to either start it or upgrade their existing setup.
The talk concludes by suggesting a few areas of cooperation between the Universities and creating a scale that can dominate in the area of spreading validated information and create a widely spread knowledge-based society.
The document discusses strategies for planning and resourcing digital archives and recordkeeping over the long term. It emphasizes understanding information needs, designing systems to support records, using open formats, applying metadata, managing migration, educating staff, and securing funding for projects through building support and linking to popular ideas. Free tools and resources are also mentioned.
Software management plans in research softwareShoaib Sufi
Slides from the 14th August 2019 webinar presentation as part of the Best Practices for HPC Software Developers (Webinar) series - https://ideas-productivity.org/events/hpc-best-practices-webinars/ - more info at https://www.exascaleproject.org/event/smp-rp/ and a recording on YouTube is at - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sELeZStzdY&feature=youtu.be
Abstract:
Software is a necessary by-product of research. Software in this context can range from small shell scripts to complex and layered software ecosystems. Dealing with software as a first class citizen at the time of grant formulation is aided by the development of a Software Management Plan (SMP). An SMP can help to formalize a set of structures and goals that ensure your software is accessible and reusable in the short, medium and long term. SMP’s aim at becoming for software what Data Management Plans (DMP’s) have become for research data (DMP’s are mandatory for National Science Foundation grants). This webinar takes you through the questions you should consider when developing a Software Management Plan, how to manage the implementation of the plan, and some of the current motivation driving discussion in this area of research management.

Gaia Resources is open for business providing services around open source, open data, and open standards. Open source allows companies to provide services around software rather than just licensing fees. Open data poses a threat to traditional data sales models but also enables new service opportunities. Gaia Resources has experience using, producing, and managing open source software and data, and utilizing open standards in their projects. They argue that being open can provide competitive advantages and make previously impossible projects and technologies viable.
"Configure once, deploy anywhere" is one of the most sought-after enterprise operations requirements. Large-scale IT shops want to keep the flexibility of using on-premises and cloud environments simultaneously while maintaining the monolithic custom, complex deployment workflows and operations. This session brings together several hybrid enterprise requirements and compares orchestration and deployment models in depth without a vendor pitch or a bias. This session outlines several key factors to consider from the point of view of a large-scale real IT shop executive. Since each IT shop is unique, this session compares strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and the risks of each model and then helps participants create new hybrid orchestration and deployment options for the hybrid enterprise environments.

Webinar: End NAS Sprawl - Gain Control Over Unstructured DataStorage Switzerland
The key to ending NAS Sprawl is to fix the file system so it can offer cost effective, scalable, high performance storage. In this webinar Storage Switzerland Lead Analyst George Crump, Quantum VP of Global Marketing Molly Rector, and the Quantum StorNext Solution Marketing Senior Director Dave Frederick discuss the challenges facing the typical scale-out storage environment and what IT professionals should be looking for in solutions to eliminate NAS Sprawl once and for all.
The document discusses digital transformation and overcoming barriers to innovation for enterprises. It identifies common blockers such as culture, skills, organization structure, finance, leadership, and feedback systems. It then provides examples of how companies can address these blockers by focusing on areas like training, compensation, shifting from project-based to product-based teams, and moving from capital to operating expenditures. The document advocates for a pathway to digital transformation that emphasizes speed, scale, and strategic priorities through principles of cloud native architecture.
The document discusses the benefits of cloud-based archiving over on-premises archiving. It notes that cloud archiving offers lower costs, improved disaster recovery, simplified pricing and budget predictability compared to on-premises archiving which requires hardware, software, administration and ongoing maintenance costs. The document also provides an agenda for the presentation including an overview of challenges with on-premises archive, how cloud archiving benefits organizations, what to look for in a cloud archive provider, and why they recommend Daegis as a hosted archive solution.

Key characteristics of companies using big dataTyrone Systems
Nowadays, data is pouring into organisations from almost every angle imaginable. Small and Medium sized Enterprises can easily collect terabytes of data per day, startups can effortlessly reach gigabytes of data per day and online organisations can even generate petabytes of data per day without any problem. However, simply having massive amounts of data is not enough to become an information-centric organisation and to stand apart and stay ahead of the competition.

This document summarizes 5 myths about open source software:
1) Open source software is unsupported and unreliable, but the document shows that open source software like PostgreSQL/PostGIS can perform faster than proprietary software like Oracle 11g in benchmarks. Open source software also tends to have fewer bugs per line of code than proprietary software.
2) Big companies don't use open source software, but many big companies do use open source software and contribute to open source projects.
3) Open source software is free, but there are costs associated with certifications, integration, training, support, and online services for open source software.
4) Open source is unsustainable, but open source business models can be sustainable through

13. CONSIDERATIONS
Drones
• You will need accreditation from CASA – check out
https://tinyurl.com/yacpgj3q for details
• If flying for
work purposes,
weight plays
a role.
• Be informed about what you need to do, and do it, or get a
group to do it for you that has the right accreditations.
< 2kg > 2kg
14. CONSIDERATIONS
Drones
• There are also various restrictions
on where you can fly – check the
“Can I Fly There” mobile app
• Also consider:
• Volumes of data that can be
generated – what will you do?
• Upkeep on the drones,
replacements
15. CONSIDERATIONS
Apps
• Apps have become a very popular way of enabling a
number of things, including:
• Data collection
• Providing information
and education
• Being accessible
at all times
16. CONSIDERATIONS
Apps
• You must consider:
• Engagement – it is not a “build it and they will come”
tool, there has to be a reason why, and support
• Maintenance – operating systems release regular, app-
breaking updates
17. CONSIDERATIONS
Apps
• You must consider:
• Audience – public expect “native apps” but teams can
use cross-platform technologies
• Usage – app platforms eg iOS, Android, Windows,
Blackberry – which varies by country
18. CONSIDERATIONS
Systems
• This is a catch-all for a range of things – but most of the
time these days we are working and building “web based”
systems
19. CONSIDERATIONS
Systems
• You can often get a grant to
build the system, but not to
maintain it – collaboration!
• Consider the Software
Development Life Cycle –
and note that the lifespan
of software is considered by
many to be around 6-8 years
20. CONSIDERATIONS
Systems
• Data standards are also really important to consider if you
want to make your data interoperable with other systems,
other groups, or just to help future proof it!
21. CONSIDERATIONS
• Great tool
when fit for
purpose
• Guidelines,
CASA
certifications
• Data volumes
• Upkeep /
replacement
• Everyone
wants one!
• Think about
your audience
• Engagement
• Maintenance
over time
• Great for
consolidation
• Expensive to
build, consider
maintenance
• Collaboration
• Data standards
• Replacement
