18. Imagined Case Studies – what could a cloud
infrastructure do
Storage and Back-up:
Different nodes
within the cloud
would act as back up
for each member. If
your node was
unavailable there
would always be
another copy
available else where
19. Imagined Case Studies – what could a cloud
infrastructure do
Format Shifting:
All (or some) content
in the cloud in a
particular format
could be migrated to
a new standard
20. Imagined Case Studies – what could a cloud
infrastructure do
Access Interfaces (I):
Developers or
publishers could
work with specific
themes of content
(e.g. WW2, history of
science, fashion)
related to all
members’ content in
the cloud

Ask which partners currently provides metadata aggregation ?
Current europeana ecosystem
Many different systems being run by each different aggregator – there are technical costs and staff costs in running independent systems
But there are transactional costs – costs of tranferring data, checking data.
And what happens if an aggregator wants to take enriched data, or even data from a different source. The end point is always Europeana
Different type of system – where aggregators share a technical framework with
What advantages might the aggregation of digitised content from Europeana cultural heritage institutions bring for researchers? What benefits might different levels of authentication over such an aggregation of content permit? What kind of tools could be built on top of that infrastructure and which of them are the most appropriate to support this kind of communities (ie tools for transcription, tools for data analysis, tools for visualising or enriching metadata, tools for sharing)? And, importantly, how might these findings and information relate to other infrastructures, both existing and future ones?
