We built our own solution for this by creating a plugin that works with our
digital asset management system (ResourceSpace) to invidually back up files
Concerns have been raised about how expensive Glacier gets if you need
to recover a lot of files in a short time period.

Hi Josh,
Glad you are looking into LOCKSS as a potential solution for your needs and
that you are thinking beyond simple backup solutions for more long-term
preservation. Here at MetaArchive Cooperative we make use of LOCKSS to
preserve a range of content/collections from our member institutions.

We use LOCKSS as part of MetaArchive. LOCKSS as I understand it is typically
spec-d for consumer hardware, and so, presumably as a result of SE Asia
flooding
the LOCKSS Global Alliance?

Restoring 3 Tb from Glacier is $370. Add about $90 if you use AWS Import/Export
(you provide the device).
Hopefully, this is not something that you would do often.

As Aaron alludes to your decision should base off your real needs and they
might not be exclusive.
LOCKSS/MetaArchive might be worth the money if it is the community archival
aspect you are going for. Depending on your institution being a participant

Hi everyone,
We are starting a digitization project for some of our special collections, and
we are having a hard time setting up a backup system that meets the long-term
preservation needs of digital archives. The backup mechanisms currently used by
campus IT are short-term full-server
I'd also take a look at Amazon Glacier. Recently I parked about 50GB
of data files in logical tar'd and gzip'd chunks and it's costing my
employer less than 50 cents/month. Glacier, however, is best for park
