Abstract
SIARD Suite enables us to preserve a relational database in an open format. It migrates a relational database to SIARD format and preserves technical and contextual metadata along with the primary data ensuring long term accessibility.
This paper introduces a web application, the SIARD Archive Browser, which allows operations on the archive such as searching for a specific record, counting records in a table containing a keyword, sorting by a column and making joins. In many use cases, the application avoids the need to load a preserved database to a DBMS.
This work is supported by FCT grant reference number SFRH/BD/45731/2008.
