- Description:
- A presentation at Samvera Connect 2019 described thus and Northwestern University Libraries (NUL) became a Hydra Partner in early 2012. Over the past 7+ years, we produced bespoke applications locally using the Hydra/Samvera codebase, worked on many iterations of a stand-alone grant-funded Hydra/Samvera product with another Partner institution, contributed effort to the development of Hyrax, implemented Hyrax as a component in a larger repository ecosystem, and shifted our repository services to the cloud. As we have evolved, we have gone through many changes in our local culture, in our user needs, in our codebase, and with our talent. One of the organizational culture changes is the shift of NUL to a learning organization. This change has made us more risk tolerant than in the past. It has allowed NUL to solve its local need of large-scale fast ingestion and description using novel approaches and technologies (Elixir, AWS services, Lambdas, etc). This presentation will discuss how these organizational changes and approaches to technology projects made us privilege the value of Samvera as a community of shared values and ideas over its shared codebase.

- Description:
- A recording of a presentation at Samvera Connect 2018 described thus, prototyping a core component of our new architecture to be horizontally scalable, designing a new architecture for our digital library with a wide ranging set of requirements and users, Stanford University Library has a robust digital library system called the Stanford Digital Repository. This repository holds a little under 500 TB of materials in preservation, and a little less than that for online access, from our cultural heritage digitization efforts and institutional repository outputs. These materials are managed across 90+ codebases serving a variety of functions from self-deposit web applications, to a nearly 10 year old parallel processing framework, to a digital repository assets publication mechanism leading into our Blacklight, Spotlight, and Geoblacklight applications - among other services and needs. At the core of this system is a Fedora 3 store. With Fedora 3 now end-of-lifed, and our system suffering from limited to no horizontal scalability options, we’re revisiting our system and architecture. We are writing it from the start with a goal to have data-forward, distributed microservices and some event-driven processing components. TACO, our new core management API, is the heart of this new architecture, and is currently being developed as a prototype. This talk will walk through the process of analysing our current system via a dataflows analysis, then planning how to create ‘seams’ in our current system to migrate towards our new system in an evolutionary fashion instead of a turn-key migration.

- Description:
- Does writing or reviewing code make you stressed, fatigued, or anxious? In this session Glen will share the mindful approach he takes to writing and reviewing code at the University of Cincinnati Libraries. Mindfulness has been used to reduce stress and increase the quality of people's lives and it can be used during software development as well. Learn how being present in the moment, focusing, and empathizing with users can lead to a better product and actually be therapeutic for the developer. and A presentation at Samvera Connect 2019 described thus

- Description:
- A recording of a presentation at Samvera Connect 2018 described thus and Panelists from Duke University, Indiana University, and the University of Michigan will share their experience of developing a Research Data Repository based on Hyrax 2. They will discuss what worked out-of-the-box, what was customized, future directions, lessons learned to date from working together, and contributing back to the Hyrax community. Institutions’ efforts include data migration, accessibility testing, branding, community outreach, curation workflows, and overcoming the challenges associated with large datasets.

- Description:
- A panel presentation at Samvera Connect 2019 described thus and As a Hyrax application developer, setting up a development environment is well documented within the community. Simply go through the Github README, install the prerequisites, and the development environment is practically ready to roll. Setting up a Hyrax production environment? Now, that’s a different story. Once an application is ready for production, there are a number of important decision points and configuration options that are less well documented within the community. This session will highlight some of those configuration options and include a discussion about how we can move forward, as a community, in communicating, sharing, and documenting how the characteristics of a repository should be considered before setting up a Hyrax production environment.

- Description:
- At Stanford libraries we've run hundreds of virtual machines to support dozens of applications. We've found the cost and complexity of patching and maintaining these machines to be untenable. We believe that a serverless infrastructure is our future and so we are using AWS Fargate (Elastic Container Services) and Lambda architecture to reduce our maintenance burden. We will explain the AWS offerings in this space, explain how we can set up a simple distributed system, and point out pitfalls that we've experienced. and A video recording of a presentation at Samvera Connect 2018 described thus

- Description:
- This presentation will explore the development of Hyku for Open Educational Resources — openly licensed educational materials such as textbooks, quizzes, classroom activities, etc. — while capitalizing on Hyku's multi-tenancy and sharing of infrastructure across two large groups of libraries. The PALCI and PALNI consortia (representing libraries in Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, West Virginia and Indiana) have just received a two year IMLS National Leadership Grant to develop Hyku into a multi-tenant, consortia-based service capable of handling OER in addition to other institutional repository resource types. In addition to leveraging collective expertise through consortia, two new work types are being developed for OER and electronic thesis and dissertations. This presentation will focus on the first work type being developed for OER , describing the features and uses of these resources, how the new work type model is being developed, and examine why Hyku and the Open Source Software community is a great home for this project. and A presentation at Samvera Connect 2019 described thus

- Description:
- A presentation given at Samvera Connect 2018 described thus, Despite widespread interest in Hyrax, Samvera’s new flagship repository solution, there is a dearth of documentation about how to run a production instance. We’ll cover the lessons we’ve learned from a year of building and hosting Hyrax, including our new project checklist, logging and monitoring practices, and data migration paths. DCE has been hosting a Hyrax based ETD repository for Emory University for 12 months. We've made a lot of discoveries and improvements since we launched. We'll be sharing our learnings and best practices for running Samvera Based repositories including, and * Infrastructure as code (esp. ansible for configuration management) * Monitoring using open-source and commercial tools (nagios, ok computer, splunk, pingdom, honeybadger) * Maintenance, Upgrades, and Testing A video recording of this session is available at the 'Related URL' below.

- Description:
- This session will provide an overview of the strategies and tactics being used at Emory University Libraries for planning and management of Samvera based initiatives. An overview of our approaches to project, product, and system management will be presented with a focus on resource strategy related to people, teams and roles. An emphasis on new hires and leadership roles will be presented as well as the challenges faced when implementing new technologies, providing support for legacy systems and managing teams. We intend for the session to be an opportunity for attendees to also share their experiences and challenges in the areas of leadership and management. and A presentation at Samvera Connect 2019 described thus
