Short Paper: Monitoring Bodleian Libraries' Repositories with Micro Services

Abstract

The Digital Preservation Micro Services and Reporting (DPMS) service is Bodleian Libraries’ monitoring system for digital collections. DPMS interacts with the storage layer of the Libraries’ existing repository systems. This method is an alternative to the monolithic systems model for digital preservation [1]. The decoupled nature of DPMS has meant that preservation tools could be incorporated into the Libraries’ existing repository services, without needing to migrate assets to a separate digital preservation platform.
This paper outlines how the DPMS service was developed. It describes the components of DPMS’s technical framework and the process of implementing it in Bodleian Libraries’ digital repositories
