HP Creating Digital Archive of Time Magazine
Hewlett-Packard Co. (HP) announced it is creating a digital archive containing every issue of Time magazine published, which Time will then make freely available to subscribers on its Web site. The archive will total more than 4,000 issues from 1923 to the present and be available in May. HP will scan every page of every issue of the magazine published by Time Warner, Inc., optimize the material, and store it using HP technology. The archive will use HP's Proliant servers, HP StorageWorks data storage gear, its OpenView management software, special software developed by HP labs, and professional services.Time said it looked at other companies to build the archive but decided on HP because of its consulting, hardware and software offerings, and because of its scanners and printers. HP is the world's largest maker of computer printers. In January, HP said it was working with Getty Images, Inc. to digitally archive its more than 70,000 film clips, and would provide its HP OpenView software, servers, storage gear, and services for the archiving of Getty's digital content.
