Fedora is designed to be RDBMS-independent. Fedora has been tested with Derby, McKoi, MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL and Microsoft SQL Server. The embedded version of Derby included with the installer is provided as a convenience; Derby is not recommended for use in production repositories. If you choose to use any database other than the embedded Derby provided by the Fedora Installer, you must install that database first.

Application Server Context

Wiki MarkupThe installer provides the option to enter an application server context name under which Fedora will be deployed. The context name defaults to Fedora (resulting in http\[s\]://host:port/fedora), however any other valid context name can be supplied. The installer will name the resulting _war_ file according to the supplied context name (defaults to {{fedora.war}}). Please ensure that the servlet container configuration reflects the name of the Fedora context name in case it needs to be configured explicitly. For further details see [Alternative Webapp Context Configuration|https://fedora-commons.org/confluence/display/FCR30/Alternative + Webapp + Context + Configuration].

Configuring SSL support for Fedora's API-M interface is an optional feature. It strongly recommended for production environments if Fedora is exposed to unsecured application and users. However, if your installation is within a managed data center with firewall services, you may choose to provide SSL using a software or hardware front-end instead. For example, a reverse proxy implemented using the Apache HTTP Server and hiding Fedora generally provides better SSL performance.
