Analogy

• Cloud Backup: A spare tire – quick recovery when something goes wrong.

• Long-Term Preservation: A library, museum, or archive – safeguarding value for the future.
clockssarchive.bsky.social
Compliance & Governance

• Cloud Backup: Supports operational recovery, but not long-term compliance.

• Long-Term Preservation: Meets regulatory, archival, and legal obligations.
clockssarchive.bsky.social
Format & Accessibility

• Cloud Backup: Stores files as-is; risk of obsolescence.

• Long-Term Preservation: Migrates to sustainable formats, ensures long-term usability.
clockssarchive.bsky.social
Data Integrity & Authenticity

• Cloud Backup: Guarantees working copies; limited authenticity controls.

• Long-Term Preservation: Provides fixity checks, audit trails, and evidential trustworthiness.
clockssarchive.bsky.social
Time Horizon

• Cloud Backup: Retention in days, weeks, or months.

• Long-Term Preservation: Retention in decades, actively managed.

Purpose

Cloud Backup: Short- to medium-term protection for recovery from accidents, failures, or
ransomware. Focus: rapid recovery.

Long-Term Preservation: Ensures authenticity, integrity, and usability of data over decades or longer. Focus: compliance, heritage, research.
