FCCN-FCT operates the public service Arquivo.pt (the Portuguese web-archive). Arquivo.pt preserves billions of files in several languages and formats harvested from the Web since 1996 and provides public services over this historical data.

The system that supports Arquivo.pt automatically collects and stores information published on the web. Then, it processes the collected data to make it searchable, providing a “Google-like” free service that enables searching the past web available at www.arquivo.pt (user interface also available in English).

The search services provided by Arquivo.pt include full-text and image search, version history listing, advanced search and application programming interfaces (API) that facilitate the development of added-value applications by third parties
