The Hyku Project
“Hyku” is the result of the Hydra-in-a-Box, IMLS grant-funded project. It was developed as a turnkey solution bundle for digital asset management by the Samvera (previously known as Hydra) community. Hosted solutions are in development with a goal to lower the barrier of entry and expand the number and diversity of institutions capable of leveraging this powerful digital repository platform.
Targeted within the Next Year (from today)
Listed roughly in priority order and the expected order of implementation. Some efforts may be implemented at the same time. The priority order may shift based on available resources and community interest.
Bulk Import
https://github.com/samvera-labs/hyku/issues/1474
The ability to perform content ingest in Hyku through an automated process. This is necessary for data migrations. Pilots mentioned this need specifically. Relevant for CONTENTdm, Digital Commons, and DSpace migrations. Not necessarily relevant to local Hyku or Hyrax migrations (that can be done via database (DB) dump and reindex).
Status Summary/Major Activities:
- Complete as of 2020
Target Date: | Lead: Rob Kaufman (Notch8) | Working Group: Hyku Interest Group | Issues |
Bulk Export
https://github.com/samvera-labs/hyku/issues/1475
Required to allow full system backup and restore. Required to allow movement of tenants between stacks or between hosting providers. Required to allow for hand-off of content on tenant exit. Required for service exit strategy.
Status Summary/Major Activities:
- Nearing completion via Oregon Digital Project, April 2020
Target Date: April 2020 | Lead: | Working Group: Hyku Interest Group | Issues |
Migration Tool
https://github.com/samvera-labs/hyku/issues/1491
Most of the current pilot institutions have stated that they would not subscribe to a Hyku service until there is a clear migration path from CONTENTdm.
