Nevertheless, the SVDA uses Omeka as a full-fledged digital library, as a repository, CRM, and DAM. It is challenging but not impossible with thoughtful planning and comprehensive testing. Major Omeka system issues were identified at the early stage and different solutions are tested to get the optimum results. As more plugins increasing combination sets of tests needed to run, only essential plugins are installed.

Other than using Omeka plugins for platform system issues found, some hybrid solutions are implemented to solve issues beyond Omeka system. For example, for preservation purposes, the Archive Repertory plugin is used to solve the backend file structure issue, while the data management, checksums, and derivative files are handled independently with different systems or tools. That is to ensure that the digital curation system has a flexible relationship between parts to decrease effects on the overall system when a component within the system fails.
