The DAITSS development team is pleased to announce that DAITSS v.1.2.1 is available for download. This release includes a source and binary distribution, and marks the first public release of the DAITSS digital preservation repository software.

Overview

The DAITSS (Dark Archive in the Sunshine State) digital preservation repository system preserves digital content for the very long term.

DAITSS is a “dark archive”; there is no real time access of content. DAITSS supports use by multiple customers, whether these are different organizations or different units within an organization. DAITSS allows great flexibility in terms of what is archived and how archived content is preserved. It implements forward format migration and normalization as preservation strategies.

DAITSS application was developed by the Florida Center for Library Automation.

DAITSS is released as open source software under the GNU GPL license.

We welcome you to the DAITSS community!
