SCAPEScalable Preservation Environments
2This work was partially supported by the SCAPE Project.The SCAPE project is co funded by the European Union under FP7 ICT 2009.4.1 (Grant Agreement number 270137).‐ ‐
What is SCAPE developing?• Scalable services for
• efficient and automated preservation planning;• execution of preservation actions of large (multi-Terabyte) and
complex data sets.

Testbeds
The SCAPE Testbeds are the primary driver of the rest of
the project in that they determine the use case
scenarios, define the preservation workflows, and
evaluate the platform.
Preservation Components
• The SCAPE Testbeds define preservation issues with a special focus on three application areas:

The SCAPE Platform
This work was partially supported by the SCAPE Project.The SCAPE project is co funded by the European Union under FP7 ICT 2009.4.1 (Grant Agreement number 270137).‐ ‐
Provides reliable storage of voluminous data objects and records
Supports the parallel execution of preservation tools and workflows close to the data
Provides a scalable backend which can be attached to different data management systems

The SCAPE Preservation Components are tools which enhance the functionality of a digital preservation system in:• scalability• functional coverage• quality
Preservation Components
More about Jpylyzer, xcorrSound, and C3PO.
Jpylyzer
• QA tool for validation of images in JPEG 2000 format (JP2):• Validation against
the JP2 format specifications, which ensures that images are standards compliant
• Extracted image and encoding properties can be validated against an institute-specific profile
xcorrSound package
• QA tools for comparison of audio files:• Overlap-analysis:
detects overlaps between two audio files
• Sound-match: finds occurrences of shorter WAV files within larger ones;
• Waveform-compare: analyses audio files for similarity.
C3PO
• Content profiling tool for preservation analysis:• Processes FITS (or
TIKA) meta data files and generates a profile of the content set in an automated fashion
• With the Web App you can visualise, filter, and export the data

increase confidence in the long-term accessibility and integrity of their collections, at the European, national, and organisational levels;
have a profound impact on the way that digital repositories are designed and built in order to enable scalable preservation services.
