SIARD_KR is an administrative information dataset preservation tool. It is a partially modified version of SIARD, technology used for long-term preservation of relational databases developed by the Swiss Federal Archives, to suit Korea's situation better. Previous studies have focused on how SIARD is able to effectively extract all data contained in the relational database without loss. However, not all data contained in the database is meaningful information, that is, an administrative information dataset. This paper began, therefore, with the awareness of the problem of whether SIARD_KR reflects the characteristics of the administrative information dataset. SIARD_KR is not only a tool for extracting data stored in the DB. We want to see if it is capable of identifying and extracting only meaningful information, and maintaining meaningful information, even if it is separated from the original system. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the structure of SIARD_KR, identify expected problems, and suggest improvement measures for them.
