The service is about operating a platform that will host Europeana´s digital infrastructure. This infrastructure is comprised of a set of interconnected tools and services upon which Europeana´s business processes are provisioned. These processes include ingestion of incoming cultural heritage data (metadata and content), publication of these data, and provisioning the Europeana API, the Europeana Portal and other products providing access to the published data. The service will provide a platform to run this infrastructure, to support its continuous integration with new software developed by Europeana and partners, and potentially to provide parts of the development and testing environments used to develop this software.
