Multi-tenancy Cloud Access and Preservation

Abstract

Virginia Tech Libraries has developed a cloud-native, microservervices-based digital libraries platform to consolidate diverse access and preservation infrastructure into a set of flexible, independent microservices in Amazon Web Services. We have been an implementer and contributor to various community digital library and repository projects including DSpace1, Fedora2, and Samvera3. However, the complexity and cost of maintaining disparate application stacks have reduced our capacity to build new infrastructure.
