AV PrestoCentre Preservathon: Preservation Storage Solutions

25 - 26 June, 2014,  Rai “Museo della Radio”, Turin, Italy
Learn to select the best storage solution for your AV archive

There is no such thing as ‘everlasting’ data storage. Digital preservation requires the indefinite, error free storage of information, together with the means for its retrieval and interpretation, irrespective of changes in technologies, support and data formats, or changes in the requirements of the user community. Any choice of storage solution, therefore, involves careful consideration, needs assessment, long-term cost evaluation and so on. Where and when do vendors become involved and what do you need to know about them and their products before you make your decision?
