Serialization Service
The serialization service allows objects in fedora to be written to a specified disk location in any MIME type fedora supports. One can decide whether or not to include binaries in the serialization, but keep in mind that they may take up a considerable amount of disk space.
When this service is enabled, it will write any new or changed object's description to disk. It listens to fedora and only operates on objects that have been created, modified or deleted. If an object was created before this service was enabled and is unchanged, it will not be written to disk. This service exposes an activemq queue for initiating serialization of fedora objects that might not otherwise get written to disk.
If an object is deleted from fedora, the serialized description and/or binary will be removed as well.
