This article presents the history and conceptualization of Archivematica, which was developed as a response to the need to develop an open-source digital preservation system (free software). The methodology adopted was that of exploratory, bibliographical and documentary research, having as main sources: reports, documentation, texts and scientific articles from national and international organizations, technologies, events and researchers. The article presents Archivematica as a preservation platform, which plays its role as a component of a Trusted Digital Archival Repository, and two basic digital object collection scenarios: with archival digital chain of custody and with chain of custody rupture. We conclude that the scenarios presented are just two of several possible scenarios in the preservation of digital objects using a preservation platform such as Archivematica, and that their proper use meets a Systemic Digital Preservation, which provides an archival digital chain of custody, aiming to maintain the reliability and authenticity of digital archival documents, with a holistic digital preservation approach, and not exclusively focused on the manual application of digital preservation strategies, which presuppose a rupture of the digital chain of custody, but rather incorporating and applying these strategies through an archival policy.
