Evolving with Agile into a New Technical Landscape: Cultivating a Sustainable DAMS Ecosystem

In the past few years, the University of Texas at Austin Libraries have pushed to modernize their digital tools and technology to better serve students, faculty, and researchers. This presentation describes the implementation of the UT Austin Libraries Digital Asset Management System (DAMS) Ecosystem. The goals were to create a new platform to ingest, manage and preserve digital assets, provide tools to allow researchers and the general public to view special digital collections online, and simultaneously modernize the underlying technology stack. We will discuss how we transitioned to enterprise workflow automation for asset ingest, containerized application hosting with automated tests, asynchronous messaging across systems, continuous integration for deployment, and challenges we faced in the process.
