Fedora 4.6.0 available
The August 31, 2016 release of Fedora 4.6.0 release furthers several major objectives:
- Tighten the definition of the RESTful application programming interface (API)
- Refining the messaging service
- Use performance test fixtures to examine the effects of different backends
- Improve durability by encouraging the use of MySQL and PostgreSQL backends
- Deprecation of legacy Transform service
- Fix bugs
This release will be the last release built against a version of Modeshape that uses Infinispan for data storage. Release notes and downloads are available on the wiki.
Reusing Fedora resources
The community has been working on import and export Fedora tooling to enhance reuse of Fedora resources in other contexts. The result of this effort will mean that users can export to a separate preservation system, as well as migrate resources across Fedora installations, such as from a LevelDB backend to PostgreSQL. Half of the problem is solved with the existing GET/POST interactions for RDF and non-RDF resources provided by the Linked Data Platform API. The other half will addressed by tooling external to Fedora.
How far does Fedora scale?
If you are interested in testing to determine the current upper-limits of Fedora performance and scalability, please join the discussion on the fedora-community mailing list and attend the next meeting on September 26.
