We're going back and forth on this one, and it's less of a technical question, and more of an organizational one. We have our collection of images being served up on a system currently, we want to add Fedora into the mix to get the metadata from the SQL server, create the DC for the object and all the associated paths for where the obj lives, it's identifiable URL, etc., in as datastreams so Fedora knows everything about the obj. The current system knows which server houses the images, and the paths to said images which will remain constant, so Fedora knows all of this as well, plus the image server is backed up, so multiple copies of the images are already available .
So, our question is, do we want to ingest the actual images into Fedora as well? If we do we'll have another copy of each image in Fedora, but we already have multiple copies, so what do we gain with that? Advice, opinions welcome.
