# PIDs and identifiers # PIDs and identifiers
One of the challenges towards the stability of the contents in the OpenAIRE Graph consists of making its identifiers and records stable over time. Ensuring the stability of the records and their identifiers in the OpenAIRE Graph is a challenge.
The barriers to this scenario are many, as the Graph keeps a map of data sources that is subject to constant variations: records in repositories vary in content, Data sources from which OpenAIRE collects metadata records are subject to constant variations: records in repositories vary in content,
original IDs, and PIDs, may disappear or reappear, and the same holds for the repository or the metadata collection it exposes. original IDs, and PIDs, may disappear or reappear, and the same holds for the data source itself or the metadata collection it exposes.
Not only, but the mappings applied to the original contents may also change and improve over time to catch up with the changes in the input records. Not only, but the mappings applied to the original contents may also change and improve over time to catch up with the changes in the input records.
