  2. Content • A quick word about RWTH Aachen University and Research Data Management • Challenge: How to get researchers to archive their data? • Our solution: make it simple  simpleArchive concept  System Architecture  Demo • Conclusion and future challenges simpleArchive – Making an Archive Accessible to the User 2 Marius Politze, Florian Claus EUNIS 2017, 08.06.2017

  3. RWTH Aachen University and Research Data Management • Project Group  IT Center  University Library and  Department Research and Career as central service providers • Central services  Backup/Archive, Storage  Publication Server  Support  Training simpleArchive – Making an Archive Accessible to the User 3 Marius Politze, Florian Claus EUNIS 2017, 08.06.2017

  4. Requirements • Allow researchers to archive “small” files  Up to 2GB  Make it a free service so researchers will use it  Reduce costs by storing on tape • Reuse existing concepts and applications  Allow use in federated context  Reduce development and maintenance costs by using available systems • Make sharing of archived data as easy as archiving  Archived data is not necessarily open access  Let researchers restore their data  … and let them share it using a simple URL • Make archived data globally identifiable using PIDs  So researchers can reference it elsewhere  … and can retrieve it using the PID simpleArchive – Making an Archive Accessible to the User 6 Marius Politze, Florian Claus EUNIS 2017, 08.06.2017

  19. Conclusion & Lessons Learned • simpleArchive is available to researchers at RWTH Aachen since Q2 2016 • Implementation reuses existing systems and APIs  gigaMove  Backup-Portal  OAuth2 Service  REST Application Proxy Simple Archive UI • Even for a simple process, policies are needed Application Proxy  How long is the data actually stored?  Who can restore the data?  Can archives be transferred? User Cache Information  Can archives be deleted? OAuth PID Service Archive Authorization simpleArchive – Making an Archive Accessible to the User 21 Marius Politze, Florian Claus EUNIS 2017, 08.06.2017

  20. Future Challenges • Evaluate the possibilities for other Universities  Archive as a service by RWTH Aachen University  Only using temp. storage and sharing with remote archives • Use web service infrastructure to add archival to other frontends  Intranet  SharePoint  … • How to combine simpleArchive with  Publication workflow  Metadata annotation  Digital timestamps simpleArchive – Making an Archive Accessible to the User 22 Marius Politze, Florian Claus EUNIS 2017, 08.06.2017
