Leading Edge
VERS is applying the latest technologies and concepts to the problem of long term preservation:
- XML (eXtensible Markup Language): Recognised as the standard in system interoperability and data exchange
- Encapsulation: Metadata and document content are wrapped up together into a single object
- Extensible schemas: Allows the standard schema to be extended through the inclusion of new components
- Digital Signatures: Used in an innovative and practical manner, providing authenticity and integrity for each record while retaining the possibility of changing the records in a controlled manner.
- Multiple document content: Each record can contain multiple documents that together form a record
- Relationships: Many different relationships can be described to link individual records together
