Migration to DSpace later

Hi everyone,

We have a potential long-term goal of running DSpace and Omeka S together, but in the short-term we are trying to get a project up and running while we have grant funding and student workers. Has anyone created a digital repository in Omeka S and later exported to DSpace for preservation. I understand that if we did that the items in DSpace and Omeka S wouldn’t connect.

  1. is it possible to export to DSpace later?
  2. is there some better solution that balances the immediate need to create something, with the long-term desire for the preservation-grade solutions DSpace offers?

Thank you!
