European Archive Licenses Hanzo Advanced Crawler

The European Archive, based in Paris and Amsterdam, is a prominent digital library of cultural artefacts, which includes music, movies and websites. On behalf of various government agencies, the European Archive captures and archives 1,000’s of government websites around Europe. The European Archive has now selected Hanzo Archives to provide the technology to capture these sites.

As web technologies evolve, with increasing use of dynamic HTML and embedded rich media and Flash, a significant proportion of these websites become difficult if not impossible to capture using generally available open source crawlers. The European Archive therefore turned to Hanzo Archives’ advanced crawler technology to ensure they’re able to capture the most challenging of these sites.

Hanzo’s crawlers are now deployed by EA alongside their existing tools and are used to capture some of Europe’s most complex government and cultural websites.
