  1. The Adonis research data preservation project for digital humanities in France

  2. What is Adonis ? The aim of the Adonis project is to providecomputing, data storage, data access and data management facilities to the french research community on Digital Humanities, based on a shared infrastructure. It should also promote and coordinate high level appication software development dedicated on digital humanities content treatment. Adonis was created 2 years ago by the CNRS. The reflection really started 1 year ago. Workshop iRods - Thomas Kachelhoffer 2

  3. The CNRS The CNRS is the National Center for Scientific Research. It is a national institute and it covers all scientific research activities from digital humanities to HEP. ~25000 collaborators working on as scientists, engineers, techniciens and administratives. It works in coordination with the french universities and also with 5 other specific national institutes (CEA, IFREMER, INRA, INRIA, INSERM). Workshop iRods - Thomas Kachelhoffer 02/02/2009 3

  4. National environment • Research on digital humanities: • Ministry of education and research • Ministry of culture • Digital humanities data are spread over: • CNRS • Universities • Archive of France (national, regional, …) • Museums (national, regional, …) • Libraries (BNF, …) • Hopefully, Adonis is only concerned by research data ! Workshop iRods - Thomas Kachelhoffer 02/02/2009 4

  5. European contacts Similaractivities are starting in other european countries and some projects are done at European Community level like DARIAH, CLARIN, … Adonis is involved in these european projects. hope to have national infrastructures that can exchange informations Workshop iRods - Thomas Kachelhoffer 02/02/2009 5

  6. Aim of the project & the CRN’s The Adonis project is based on the network of the ~12 Numerical Resources Centers (CRN) and 2 computing centers (CC-IN2P3 & CINES). The CRN are dedicated to specific data subjects and studies. These CRN’s have limited resources and can not manage long term preservation: externalization of the data to computing centers (200-300 TB) use a shared infrastructre. concentration on high level application for data content treatment Workshop iRods - Thomas Kachelhoffer 02/02/2009 6

  7. CC-IN2P3 & CINES in Adonis • The CC-IN2P3: • Data management, data access, data storage • Computing • Web servers, databases, … • The CINES: • long term data preservation (format, physical support) • data format check & metadata check Workshop iRods - Thomas Kachelhoffer 02/02/2009 7

  8. Infrastructure architecture users users users users • CMS • Data validation CRN CRN CPU Distributed working space (fedora-commons) Distributed working space (iRods) ? • Workflow ? • Authentication ? • Access rights ? • Scalability ? Long term preservation system Workshop iRods - Thomas Kachelhoffer 02/02/2009 8

  9. Technologies used • Numerical object level: • fedora-commons (web services, api’s) • File level: • iRods & i-commands • iRods api’s (java, php) • java & windows iRods browsers • Authentication: • LDAP ? Shibboleth ? GSI ? … • Authentication transmission ? • Access rights management: • LDAP ? RDB ? … • Video streaming • We need performances at each level.
