We have that use case here, John -- we are implementing separate DSpace instances for our 23 campuses, but we also need a separate interface that can search them all.
We're just going to harvest the data using OAI-PMH. I'm sure you've thought of that, too. --Dave ================== David Walker Library Web Services Manager California State University http://xerxes.calstate.edu ________________________________________ From: John Preston [[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, February 10, 2009 8:53 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Dspace-tech] Federating a number of DSpace instances Does anyone know if any work is going on regarding federating a number of DSpace instances so that the group could be considered as a single DSpace instance for searching say. My use case has a number of DSpace instances that are operated and maintained as individual instances. When a user wishes to search for some information, then the search is performed across all instances, and returns links to where the info was found on the individual instance.
