SIARD format
SIARD stands for Software Independent Archiving of Relational Databases. The Swiss Federal Archives (SFA) have developed the SIARD format as a sustainable solution for the archiving of relations databases. SIARD Format is based on internationally recognized standards such as XML, SQL:1999 and UNICODE.
Moreover, in early 2013 SIARD format has been adopted as eCH-Standard (eCH-0165: SIARD format specification http://www.ech.ch/vechweb/page?p=dossier&documentNumber=eCH-0165).
eCH-Standards define guidelines for recurring applications and their results, as for example format definitions or procedural standards. The aim of those standards is to unify and thus facilitate the electronic collaboration between authorities as well as between authorities and organizations, educational and research institutions, firms and private organizations.
