Rethinking digital preservation• Mission is still the same: to preserve the
important digital assets of UC• Curation instead of preservation• Curation is an outcome, not a repository
– Includes access, document schedules, versioning, migration, other archival practices
• Technology change is inevitable; it should be built into curation services

Curation Micro-services, I
• A break from traditional model of comprehensive digital repository
• A series of independent yet interoperable tools to manage digital objects
• Will allow for more flexible systems; can respond quickly to changes
April 10, 2009 CDL Users Council 4
Curation Micro-services, II
• Exchange new implementation of micro-service without having to re-engineer entire system
• Can allow us to push tools out to endusers
• We hope it results in a system that is more responsive to endusers’ needs

Current status, II• Charging for storage for UC campuses, starting
in FY 09/10– Charging for storage only– $1500/TB/year– Fees discounted 50% 1st year, 25% second year– We expect storage costs to drop
• Considering costs for clients outside UC; hope to have at least a pilot program in the next few months.
