Advances in computer technology offer many new opportunities but also new challenges. One of the most important challenges is tackling the problem of digital obsolescence: ensuring that the digital information we create and store today will continue to be accessible for as long as we may need it.

A complete archiving solution must retain knowledge and ensure it can be found and read when needed. A genuine archive combines tools for ingest, storage, management and access. It also includes the capability to preserve information such that it is accessible. Yet an archive is often the last part of a comprehensive data management vision to be delivered.

• Why archive?
• What are the problems?
• The best solution?
