| Who | Notes |
|---|
| Sydney K. | - DPOCH proposal is almost done
- Challenge - with her and one other staff members they have been doing all the metadata cleanup
- With John and Nick's ability to work with LAITS about their DASe functionality and figure out where their holes were and all the metadata inconsistencies
- They have been figuring out how to correct the authority names in one place (Ex. Washington D.C.. -> Washington, D.C.) and have that correction cascade to all records with that value
- Summer has been a good time to figure out what isn't working before the fall session starts and it gets more heavily used
- They had both Getty and in-house controlled vocabularies (the controlled vocabularies exist as taxonomies in Drupal and the images and metadata exist in Fedora/Islandora)
- Jenn mentioned that it would be a great idea to present to the digipres group about what the UT-TIS group learnd in working on the VRC DPOCH project
|
| | - Ryan and Jennifer are interested in testing the sandbox for ATOM
|
| Ryan | - Before Mark McFarland left, he got us into DPN
- Ryan says DPN is currently working to use exisiting infrastrcuture at a few universities (Haiti, Stanford, UT, San Diego)
- They are running tests to make sure
- TDL is involved, they have selcted DuraCloud
- Use curation tasks in DSpace to push stuff to DuraCloud
- DuraCloud sync - push stuff to DuraClooud from command line
- TDL is doing something very similar to what San Dirego was doing with Duracloud so we have actually contributed code to a joint effort to buid
- operating as ingest point ot folks outside of TDL
- Just rolled version 3.1 out at TDL
- Kristi Park is going to start reaching out to see what kind of rails or user features could be added around the technology itself
- They do have a cost sheet to store in DuraCloud (it's cheap if all you just want to push to Glacier, some terabytes must go to UT for free, $120/yr/TB)
- They have run tests with Houston and Baylor - Durasync is working so it is at the point where we turn it from a product
|
| Sydney | - How does DuraCloud integrate with the larger storage landscape on campus?
- Ryan says TDL is a seperate organization with its own Amazon Cloud contract
- Ladd has a UT Amazon Cloud Storage contract
- S3 - spinning disk (you can make some of these items stored here public, and audio video can be made available through S3)
- Glacier - disk but more like going to tape - you make a request and it comes back to you a few hours later, only dark can't be mad public
- TDL is offering cloud services with DuraCloud that would be available to UT departments
- TDL is offering a preservation service so you might not need everything in a preservation service
|
| Ladd | - Avalon is going well - he's been looking at it particular for CTL, they need an intermediate solution
- Northwestern and Indiana are going to use it for their delivery system for their big digitization project (mostly audio and video in 40 different formats, ~7PB) and working more closely with their analog to CTL
- They just integrating something called LTI (their Canvas) so you can use it in courses
- The grant Avalong was funded by ends this summer and Ladd thinks they will start building community more actively at that point
- There are some ADA requirements that need to be worked in (transcripts, timed text)
- Islandora seems to be going really well. He talked to Mark Leggott at OR last week and they are working on Glifos-type solution pack (transcripts with audiofile and placename markers)
- Leggott mentioned something called Scalar (sp?) which is an open-source player that they want to integrate
- DG was interested in running Fedora/Islandora in Amazon
- Leggott also discussed an Islandora module to hook up to Archivematica (not in the latest release but it will be in the next release)
|
| Lisa | - In Canada, public universities can't use Amazon because everything has to be on Canadian soil
- Amazon
- She's got a capstone student, Nicole, to work on a BitCurator project
- The VMare is a pain with USB 3.0
- She's been working on aquisitions for the last few weeks (McEwan materials)
|
| Maryrose | - She is here to hear what is going with member constituencies so that she can work in some of the ideas/facts/projects into her records retention and policy strategy
- She's thinking of how the university might build records management functionality into any new digital assets management
|
| Jenn | - TARO update
- They are going to get some permission to move forward on schema compliance for TARO
- They are currently surveying users and respositories to see what everyone's need are
- Once they have that data, they'll follow that up with a survey for pier consortia
- Planning grant to fund a person to be the point-person for TARO (be the steward for project, do more research into systems and write the implementation grant)
|
| Jessica | - Web archiving
- Lisa mentioned that if we did run the crawler in-house, we could invest more money into staff for QA
- Storage would be cheaper at TACC
- Help develop infrastructure as part of the overall proposal
