Learn how to spot these performance bumps early, and more importantly, how to navigate around them to keep your application running at top speed.
We will focus in particular on tuning your engine at the application level, making the right adjustments to ensure that your system responds like a well-oiled, high-performance race car.

• Understand the open source development model used by DSpace
• Know how DSpace is licensed, and what this allows you to do
3. What is DSpace?
Space is a platform that allows you to capture items in any
format – in text, video, audio, and data. It distributes it over
the web. It indexes your work, so users can search and
retrieve your items. It preserves your digital work over the
long term.
Space is typically used as an institutional repository. It has
three main roles:
• Facilitate the capture and ingest of materials, including metadata about
the materials
• Facilitate easy access to the materials, both by browsing and searching
4. What are the benefits of using DSpace?
ome example benefits:
• Getting your research results out quickly, to a worldwide audience
• Reaching a worldwide audience through exposure to search engines such as
Google
• Storing reusable teaching materials that you can use with course management
systems
• Archiving and distributing material you would currently put on your personal
website
• Storing examples of students’ projects
• Showcasing students’ theses and disertations
• Keeping track of your own publications/bibliography
• Having a persistent network identifier for your work, that never changes or
breaks
• No more page charges for images. You can point to your images’ persistent
identifiers in your published articles.
5. What can be stored in DSpace?
Space can be used to store any type of digital medium. Examples
include:
• Journal papers
• Data sets
• Electronic theses
• Reports

Editor's Notes
This module will introduce DSpace, its history, and the DSpace Foundation. The module will introduce what DSpace is and what it can be used for. It will then describe the development of DSpace over time, and talk about DuraSpace, which now oversees the running of DSpace. The open source development model used by DSpace will also be described.
We will talk about the different file formats, indexing and preservation efforts later one.
DSpace is a platform that allows you to capture items in any format – in text, video, audio, and data. It distributes it over the web. It indexes your work, so users can search and retrieve your items. It preserves your digital work over the long term.
DSpace provides a way to manage your research materials and publications in a professionally maintained repository to give them greater visibility and accessibility over time.
DSpace is typically used as an institutional repository. It has three main roles:
Facilitate the capture and ingest of materials, including metadata about the materials
Facilitate easy access to the materials, both by listing and searching
Facilitate the long term preservation of the materials
Getting your research results out quickly, to a worldwide audience
Reaching a worldwide audience through exposure to search engines such as Google
Storing reusable teaching materials that you can use with course management systems
Archiving and distributing material you would currently put on your personal website
Storing examples of students’ projects (with the students’ permission)
Showcasing students’ theses (again with permission)
Keeping track of your own publications/bibliography
Having a persistent network identifier for your work, that never changes or breaks
No more page charges for images. You can point to your images’ persistent identifiers in your published articles.
DSpace can be used to store any type of digital medium. Examples include:
Journal papers
Data sets
Electronic theses
Reports
Conference posters
Videos
Images
At a very high level, DSpace looks like this:
Web-based interface makes it easy for a submitter to create an archival item by depositing files. DSpace was designed to handle any format from simple text documents to datasets and digital video.
Data files, also called bitstreams, are organized together into related sets. Each bitstream has a technical format and other technical information. This technical information is kept with bitstreams to assist with preservation over time.
An item is an "archival atom" consisting of grouped, related content and associated descriptions (metadata). An item's exposed metadata is indexed for browsing and searching. Items are organized into collections of logically-related material.
A community is the highest level of the DSpace content hierarchy. They correspond to partsof the organization such as departments, labs, research centers or schools.
DSpace’s modular architecture allows for creation of large, multi-disciplinary repositories that ultimately can be expanded across institutional boundaries.
DSpace is committed to going beyond reliable file preservation to offer functional preservation where files are kept accessible as technology formats, media, and paradigms evolve over time for as many types of files as possible.
The end-user interface supports browsing and searching the archives. Once an item is located, Web-native formatted files can be displayed in a Web browser while other formats can be downloaded and opened with a suitable application program.
The DSpace project was initiated in July 2000 as part of the HP-MIT alliance (Hewlett Packard / Massachusetts Institute of Technology). The project
was given $1.8 million USD by HP over two years to build a digital archive for MIT that would handle the 10,000 articles produced by MIT authors annually.

Give a brief overview of the most current version.
The DSpace Foundation was formed in 2007 as a non-profit organization to provide support to the growing community of institutions that use DSpace.
The foundation’s mission is to lead the collaborative development of open source software to enable permanent access to digital works.
In 2009 the DSpace Foundation joined forces to become DuraSpace. This is a not-for-profit organization which combines the DSpace Foundation amd the Fedora Commons organization. These were two of the largest providers of open source repository software for managing and providing access to digital content.
DuraCloud is a new service and open source technology for managing content in the cloud that was launched by DuraSpace in 2011. DuraCloud makes use of commercial cloud infrastructure to provide organizations with tools for archiving content across multiple cloud providers to ensure that documents, imagery and videos are always backed-up. DuraCloud features built-in compute services for digital preservation, data access, transformation, and sharing.
DSpaceDirect is a low-cost, turnkey hosted repository service. DSpaceDirect can be used to preserve and provide access to academic faculty and student papers, projects, and research.
DuraSpace also offers professional development opportunities which include “Hot Topics” web seminar series based on current topics of interest curated by community experts. Informal “Brown Bag” tutorial sessions offer participants interactive sessions about technology innovations as well as a chance to ask questions. In addition, their courses provide a way to build professional expertise through a dynamic learning process that takes place over several months.
DurSpace Mission:
DuraSpace is an independent 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization providing leadership and innovation for open technologies that promote durable, persistent access to digital data. We collaborate with academic, scientific, cultural, and technology communities by supporting projects and creating services to help ensure that current and future generations have access to our collective digital heritage.
Our values are expressed in our organizational byline, "Committed to our digital future."
Open source software
DSpace is open source software. That means that you can download, use, and modify DSpace for free. The software is shared under a BSD (Berkeley
Software Distribution) licence.
The development model The code for DSpace is kept within a source code control system (http://dspace.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/dspace/). This system allows code to be added or modified over time, whilst maintaining a track of all changes and a note of why the change was made and who made it. This assists with the development of the software and ensures the quality and traceability of the code. Any past version of DSpace can be downloaded from the system in an identical state as originally distributed. Control of the source code repository is delegated to a small group of ‘committers’ (http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php/DspaceContributors). Only the committers have the ability to change the code and release new versions. The committers work with the wider community of DSpace users to fix bugs and improve the software with new features.
Anyone who wants to is welcome to submit big fixes, new features or feature requests. The can all be done through the SourceForge administrative system (http://sourceforge.net/projects/dspace/).
Support is provided on an informal basis via email lists
(http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=19984).
There are three lists:
1. Dspace - Tech for technical support
2. Dspace -General for general questions and announcements
3. DSpace-Dev for discussing development issues
For full details of support options see the module ‘How to get Help’.
