Core Service
Core service is comprised of the DAITSS preservation business logic and workflow web interface. It also includes the models for the DAITSS preservation and operations databases. Whereas the other DAITSS web-service components are stand alone and single purpose, Core service ties them all together to implement a digital preservation workflow.
