Audit and outsourcing: their role in creating interoperable repository infrastructure
- 1. Audit, outsourcing and interoperability of preservation Kevin Ashley, ULCC [email_address]
- 7. repositories preservation infrastructure interoperability
- 9. Interoperability - a wider view Interoperability isn’t just metadata, APIs and wire protocols It’s policies, comparability and markets People want to compare services We need trust in transferability
- 10. An external perspective None of us are perfect Without oversight, standards can slip External perspectives encourage improvement Audit formalises this
- 12. Repository Audit Mechanisms TRAC DRAMBORA NESTOR DINI OAIS: http://wiki.digitalrepositoryauditandcertification.org
- 13. But what about interoperability? Easier to please auditors when using standards Easier to compare A with B Audits themselves - in standard form - allow consumers, depositors to compare Is A better value/more trustworthy/more secure/more open than B?
- 14. An trivial example What is the likelihood that you will lose 1 bit in X years ? What confidence limits apply to that number ?
- 15. Not so trivial What is the energy cost of preserving X bits over Y years ? Do you do an environmental audit ? Are you certified against recognised standards ?
- 16. Interoperable policies I give you content - we have an agreement Content is later transferred - merger, takeover, change of collection policy Is my agreement transferred ? Who do I sue ?

- 18. Outsourcing
- 20. How does it help Contracts, service level agreements, performance measures Comparability is desirable Interoperability - of a form - follows Customers don’t like lock-in Intelligent ones design it out - exit plans
