Valuation

»Research data needs a long term home

»The data vault platform is the only archive interface designed specifically with research data in mind

»Archiving infrastructure is maturing (e.g., Amazon Glazier/Arkivum/Local solutions etc) but there is still a requirement for a researcher oriented user interface

»Platform is extendible (storage and integration) and open source, and will be in use at Edinburgh and Manchester
