Preservica simplifies digital preservation for Calm catalogue users
Oxford, UK (PRWEB UK) 9 April 2014 -- Preservica, a world leader in digital preservation technology, consulting and research, has added a new integration to its active preservation solution, making it easier for Calm catalogue users to safeguard their valuable digital content and synchronize catalogue data between the two systems.
Preservica customer, Chris Hilton, Senior Archivist at the Wellcome Trust Library appreciates the new function “We use Calm to catalogue our extensive collection of both physical and digital assets. We also systematically ingest digital content into Preservica to ensure it remains accessible and readable into the future. The new Preservica integration provides us with the best of both worlds, streamlining the process of safeguarding our digital content and automatically synchronizing catalogue data between the two systems.”
The new Calm catalogue integration, which is now available to all Preservica customers, ensures that vital catalogue hierarchies and metadata are synchronized between Preservica and Calm so that changes made to the Calm catalogue are reflected in Preservica. Preservica performs integrity checking, quality assurance and characterization of digital content to protect against loss and degradation and ensure the content can be easily migrated to newer file formats overtime. The award-winning digital preservation technology is available in cloud-hosted or on premise editions giving customers flexibility in how and where they actively preserve their valuable digital content.
