Hi Chathunga,

First, just a small clarification. DSpace is the open-source software 
platform/project. DuraSpace is actually a not-for-profit organization 
that helps support DSpace (along with Fedora & DuraCloud).

Here's a few places you can get started with DSpace:

* DSpace website: http://www.dspace.org/  (There's a video tour, 
hints/tips on getting started with DSpace, etc.)
* DSpace Resources page: 
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/DSpaceResources (lists all the 
various DSpace resources -- Documentation, Wiki, Guides, Mailing Lists, 
etc.)
* DSpace Demo Site (a fully functional demo version of DSpace): 
http://demo.dspace.org/
* Online Documentation (to get started installing the software): 
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC18/DSpace+1.8+Documentation
* DSpace Wiki: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Home

As you get started with DSpace, if you run into any issues, you are 
welcome to ask questions on the 'dspace-tech' listserv. There we can 
help you troubleshoot issues you may be encountering, etc.
https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dspace-tech/

Good luck!

- Tim
