The Fascinator is an Apache Solr front end to the Fedora commons repository. This project is funded by ARROW, as part of the mini project scheme. The Fascinator is written in Java. It drops into the Tomcat server that comes with Fedora. The goal of the project is to create a simple interface to Fedora that uses a single technology – that's Solr – to handle all browsing, searching and security. This contrasts with solutions that use RDF for browsing by 'collection', XACML for security and a text indexer for fulltext search, and in some cases relational database tables as well. We wanted to see if taking out some of these layers makes for a fast application which is easy to configure. So far so good. The Fascinator can:

Robertson Library is releasing the their Fedora-Drupal module Islandora as opensource. There is a Islandora project hosted by Fedora Commons here. |

...
There is a demo Amazon ec2 image running here http://ec2-75-101-195-219.compute-1.amazonaws.com/ |
...
. The ami has both Drupal and Fedora installed. The disk space available to for this image is limited. If you use Amazon's EBS you could get upto a terabyte of space. There is also a S3 adapter written for Fedora that could be used. |
...
If you have an Amazon AWS account you can launch your own version of the image. The public image name is ami-e9d23680. |
...
Once the image is started you will have to login to the newly created image using ssh and start Fedora. To start Fedora cd to /usr/local/fedora/tomcat/bin and type ./startup.sh. This will start Tomcat which will bring up the Fedora web application. You will then be able to use a browser to view your new ami instance by browsing to the ami's public DNS address. |
...
We have created a google group to act as a mailing list for the Islandora module. You can send email here islandora@googlegroups.com or visit here http://groups.google.com/group/islandora |

Blacklight is an open source OPAC (online public access catalog). That means libraries (or anyone else) can use it to allow people to search and browse their collections online. Blacklight uses Solr to index and search, and it has a highly configurable Ruby on Rails front-end. Currently, Blacklight can index, search, and provide faceted browsing for MaRC records and several kinds of XML documents, including TEI, EAD, and GDMS. Blacklight was developed at the University of Virginia Library and is made public under an Apache 2.0 license. A next generation library catalog written in ruby, using solr as the underlying search engine. All you have to do is export your marc records, index them with the scripts provided, start up ruby on rails, and you're on your way to faceted browsing bliss |
