The service builds on the pure storage from expert storage providers by overlaying the access functionality and preservation support tools that are essential to ensuring long-term access and durability. DuraCloud offers cloud storage across multiple commercial and non-commercial providers, and offers compute services that are key to unlocking the value of digital content stored in the cloud. DuraCloud provides services that enable digital preservation, data access, transformation, and data sharing. Customers are offered "elastic capacity" coupled with a "pay as you go" approach. DuraCloud is appropriate for individuals, single institutions, or for multiple organizations that want to use cross-institutional infrastructure.
DuraCloud had been in a pilot phase since the beginning of Fall became available as a limited pilot in 2009 and was released broadly as a service of the DuraSpace not-for-profit organization in 2011. In 2019, DuraSpace merged with LYRASIS and the combined organization continues to support and host the DuraCloud software and service in collaboration with other organizations that contribute to and host the DuraCloud software.
