� Until now (< 100.000 website version crawled)

• For search by URL (like Internet Archive)

– Index with ArcIndexer (~100 GB) + visualize with Wayback √

• For search by keyword

– Index with Hadoop+NutchWAX + visualize with WERA √

� Now (120.000 website version crawls)

• Performance problems for keyword indexing

• Two solutions under evaluation:

– Index with a new version of NutchWAX + visualize with TNH (the new

hotness, from IA)

– Index with JB (James Brown, from IA) + visualize with TNH

Long term preservationLong term preservation

� The e-infrastructure must ensure the long term data

access, without failure.

� To succeed, it must be taken into account:

• Replication (more than one copy)

• Media refresh

• Format migration

• Data integrity (checksums)

• Contingency and recovery plan

• Preservation plan

• ...
