From Wiki
Thus far in this chapter we have mentioned examples of different software solutions that can perform specific preservation metadata collection and management functions, such as file identification, conversion, validity, and fixity checks. Such tools will indeed sometimes be designed to perform just one specific, or a group of similar, functions. However, these individual tools are also often used together as a more wide-ranging software solution, which can provide a full scope of preservation and metadata-related functions. Moreover, such multifunctional tools for metadata are then incorporated into comprehensive software solutions that can manage the entire process of digital archiving within a given Digital Archiving System.
