Description

SiteStory is an open-source transactional web archive. It archives resources of a web server it is associated with. As a browser requests a resource published by the server, that resource is delivered to the browser but also pushed into the archive. As a result, a SiteStory web archive contains a copy of all versions of a server's resources that were requested by a web client. A SiteStory archive is accessible via the Memento protocol.

Platform and interoperability

SiteStory can serve as a transactional web archive for Apache Web Server with version 2.2 or higher. The web archive component can work with other web servers, but requires development of an add-on similar to mod_sitestory created for Apache. Tested on GNU/Linux.

Standards compliance

A SiteStory archive is accessible via the Memento protocol and supports exporting captured resources to WARC files.
