Repository Architecture
Requirements and best practices related to information architecture and content modeling for the Fedora repository will be listed here.
Charge/deliverables:
- Perform an inventory and analysis of Emory content instances and content models
- Survey other organizations’ models and concepts
- Develop object definitions/types (e.g. collections, objects, other entities) and their relationships to one another.
- Coordinate with Digital Preservation and Technology groups regarding storage integration strategy for different file use scenarios for object models (e.g. access versions vs. masters; large file storage needs v. generic file storage needs)*
- Identify SIPs, AIPs, and DIPs structures to support digital preservation needs*
- Models of objects in preservation inside and outside of Fedora; object deletion and retention; object relationships related to preservation scenarios (versioning, migration, redaction, deletion, etc.)*
- Specify implementation needs for Arks/PIDs/PURLs (related to object structures)*
- Coordinate with Metadata group regarding ontology development for managing object relationships*
*Work de-scoped for Discovery Phase
