# Handling archives

The archive file for a system contains all the values of measures resulting from evaluating selected metrics. It also contains the definitions of non elementary metrics (the one user has defined) in order to be sure of what is being measured.

The archive files are entitled to achieve comparisons between systems. And then, user can compare systems to evaluate their own projects.

The Metric archive tab will help you in:

- Creating an archive
- Comparing to an archive
