[Building Sakai] Videos and Sakai

[Adam Marshall]

The biggest problem we faced concerning videos in sakai is the cost of backups. Disc space these days is cheap but backing up files is not; adding the storage of videos would vastly increase disc usage and therefore the cost of keeping backup . 

Our (as yet unimplemented) idea was to create a clone of the resources tool which stores its files in a different location to the regular tool, we would then o A vocabulary file not to backup the alternative filestore.

We need to address the issue of videos, animations similations etc (learning objects). not lecture capturing in sakai, and need your help on this. 

We're thinking of something like a local "youtube" like implementation for this, but need to ask you 
 
1) Is video within sakai's resources an option? We want to upgrade to sakai
2.9.1 in June if not, what kind of software do you recommend.
3) What is Matterhorn's limitations if any in providing a service like this. We are planing a Matterhorn implimentation pilot for the second half on 2013, but this will be for lecture capturing only.
 
 
Thank you for the help
 
Ciellie
