Identifier Service
From version 1.2 onwards there are two modes for the Identifier Service:
- Persistent Identifier (PID)
- Digital Object Identifier (DOI)
By default, the URI mode is used, creating a PID for databases or subsets. If starting the Identifier Service in DOI mode, a DOI is minted for persistent identification of databases or subsets. Using the DOI system is entirely optional and should not be done for test-deployments.
