Project Coordinator
CERN

Pre-Commercial Procurement
07.05.2019 ARCHIVER Project Overview 2
Focus: Archiving and Data Preservation Services using commercial cloud services
Procurement Budget: 3.4M euro
Starting Date: 1st of January 2019
Duration: 36 Months
Coordinating Partner: CERN

Consortium
Includes Buyers and Experts in the preparation, execution and promotion of the Procurement of R&D
Procurers - Public organisations committing funds to contribute to a joint-procurement
Experts – Partner organisations bringing expertise in requirement assessment and promotion activities, not part of the Buyers Group

Challenge
Data volumes and complexity growing; Communities Growing; Needs of advanced functionality increase
Objective: perform R&D to demonstrate long-term preservation and archiving services for scientific data in the PB range under
F.A.I.R. principles, using commons solutions, while research groups keep total stewardship of their data sets
OAIS, FAIR and European Regulation (GDPR)
European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) integration
Reduce fragmentation expanding existing solutions to several scientific domains
Access through GÉANT network; Federated AAI support
Scalability: PB data volume of multi domain scientific data; High sustained ingest rates (1-10 Gbps)
Cost-effective and transparent business models: range of purchasing and deployment options, stimulating uptake by the wider
research community
Basic Scientific Data
Archiving & Bit
Preservation

OAIS Reference Model
Relevant Standards
Preservation: ISO 14721/16393, 26324 and related
Infrastructure Services: ISO 27000, ISO 27040, 19086

Cost-effective
Business Model
Taking into account:
- Scale
- Ingest rates
- Archive lifetime
- # of copies
- Exit strategies
- Portability
- SLAs
Regulation &
Legislation
- Auditing
- Self-assessment
- Data Retention
- GDPR
R&D Challenge
Data integrity/security; cloud/hybrid deployment; data
volume in the PB range; high, sustained ingest data rates;
ISO certification: 27000, 27040, 19086 and related
Archives connected to the GEANT network.
OAIS conformant services: data readability formats, normalization,
obsolesce monitoring, files fixity, authenticity checks, etc.;
ISO 14721/16393, 26324 and related standards
User services: search, discover, share, indexing, data removal, etc.;
Access under Federated IAM

Draft Tender Documents Published (update)
Draft versions of the tender documents are now available during the OMC process,
including:
RfT, Framework Agreement and Functional Specification;
Annex 2 (Selection Criteria); Annex 4 (Award Criteria);
Initial list of Milestones and Deliverables;
Q&A from the OMC also publicly available
You are able to make comments on the technical documents and ask more questions

Early Adopters
Objective: Encourage wide deployment outside the Buyers Group of
solutions developed during the project, ARCHIVER will engage with a group
of “Early Adopters”.
Benefits:
Be consulted for feedback on the tender documents before its publication,
scheduled on October 2019
Access parts of the R&D produced by the ARCHIVER Contractors across all phases of
the project
Access to limited capacity made available by the Buyers Group during the pilot
phase to test the services developed
Early Adopters will be listed on the Request for Tender (RfT)

ingest sustained data rates (1-10 Gbps per day) for multi-disciplinary scientific data
Diversify your offer and commercialize resulting services by the end of the project
Support the open data movement
Offer services via the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) Catalogue
Access the public funded European Research Infrastructures (RIs) as a new market
segment

Great thanks to EMBL-EBI for the organization of the event
