  • Spring-based configuration. Fedora has adopted Spring as a means of configuring its internal components. This move to a modern, enterprise-grade framework offers greater flexibility for integrating repository components, and allows Fedora to more easily adapt to challenging deployment environments. See also Spring Configuration in the documentation.
  • Standard WAR file distribution. Fedora runtime configuration has moved entirely outside of the WAR file, allowing a single standardized war file to be included in each release. This allows bugfix releases to be distributed and applied in a much simpler fashion than before: merely replace the old WAR file with the updated one.
  • FeSL policy enforcement improvements. Numerous enhancements have been made to FeSL authZ. Notably, the requirement of installing dbxml has been removed. This had been a barrier to FeSL testing adoption. With the various improvements in FeSL authZ, we consider this feature "beta", and encourage users of Fedora to give it a try and provide feedback.
  • FEDORA_HOME environment variable no longer required to run fedora server
  • JSON support for RISearch
