Hi Perian, We're using Luna Insight at the Brooklyn Museum and have programmed a two-way path to TMS, our collection management system. Currently about 58,000 object images; 9,000 exhibition installation views; 9000 images from archives (plus a few from libraries).
Object data is written from TMS to Luna on a weekly basis (too many records, too long an indexing procedure to do it nightly) and media records/thumbnails/links to full-size images added to TMS from Luna nightly. Our Collection on the Web pulls images and image data from Luna, object data from TMS, and other content from a CMS. All of this done by our talented folks in Technology. See the end result at http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/opencollection/collections/ and lots of posts by Shelley Bernstein (and a few by me) under community/blogs/bloggers.
