Meadow (backend)
https://github.com/nulib/meadow

Digital Collections contains thousands of items from Northwestern University Libraries. While only a fraction of materials from the Libraries' collections are represented, the site is representative of the distinction and diversity of collections from the Northwestern Government and Geographic Information collection, Herskovits Library of African Studies, Music Library,McCormick Library of Special Collections, Transportation Library, and University Archives.

Meadow is the Digital Collections Backend and staff DAM.

image downloader (https://github.com/samvera-labs/image-downloader)
serverless IIIF (https://github.com/samvera-labs/serverless-iiif)

Digital Collections is a React application hosted on S3. It consumes a metadata API powered by Elastic Search (our "common index"). Images are backed by a "serverless" IIIF endpoint hosted on a lambda.

Meadow: Elixir-based application with a suite of serverless functions to do the heavy lifting.
