ToMaR SCAPE preservation management tool available

摘要

The SCAPE (Scalable Preservation Environments) Project group has released the ToMaR tool. ToMaR, the tool-to-MapReduce Wrapper, wraps command line tools into a Hadoop MapReduce job which executes the command on all the worker nodes of the Hadoop cluster in parallel, letting your preservation tools run efficiently on thousands of files. This can be very helpful with large file format migration projects. The SCAPE Project is funded by the European Union and is coordinated by the Austrian Institute of Technology.
