Control Interface for the Digital Memory Platform

CERN produces a huge amount of data, such as experimental results, digital documents and multimedia content, which needs to be stored, archived and preserved for many years to come. For this reason, the Digital Memory project was started, with the goal of guaranteeing the longterm storage and preservation of content from various existing information systems, but also to be able to collect missing content that is currently not archived anywhere. To reach this goal, the Digital Memory Platform is currently under development. It is an OAIScompliant digital archive that will manage all the processes needed to harvest, ingest and preserve all the content that needs to be archived, in a single standardized way. This platform will be connected to the existing information systems, so that researchers at CERN can easily use it to archive all their resources. This report describes the development of the Control Interface, a dashboard used to manage the Digital Memory Platform. It can be used to request the archival of a resource coming from one of the already existing information systems, to approve or reject such requests and to control the progress and the outcome of the various archival processes. To handle these features, we also developed part of the platform itself
