An electronic archive, also known as a digital archive or e-archive, is a systematic and organized collection of electronic documents and information. Unlike traditional physical archives, which contain paper documents, electronic archives consist of digital files and data that are stored and managed in electronic form.
An electronic archive can contain various types of information, including text documents, tables, images, videos, audio files and other digital content. Such archives are used to store electronic information for the long term, make it easily accessible and ensure its integrity and authenticity.
