Optional Features
-
Backup and Restore — The Fedora 4 Backup capability allows a user, such as the repository manager, make a REST call to have the repository binaries and metadata exported to the local file system. Inversely, the Restore capability allows a user to make a REST call to have the repository restored from the contents of a previous Backup operation. In addition, with the default configuration, files are stored on disk named according to their SHA1 digest, so a filesystem backup approach can also be used.
-
External Search — To support the differing needs for sophisticated, rich searching, Fedora 4 comes with a standard mechanism and integration point for indexing content in an external service. This could be a general search service such as Apache Solr or a standalone triplestore such as Sesame or Fuseki.
-
External Triplestore — RDF support is a core feature of Fedora 4, used as the primary data format for the REST API. A triplestore is not bundled into the repository itself. Instead, Fedora 4 sends events when the repository is updated, and the Indexer copies RDF from the repository to an external triplestore to keep it in sync with the repository. This pattern, which is also used for search functionality for the same reasons, allows maximum flexibility about what triplestore to use, and removes the overhead of keeping the triplestore in sync from the core repository functionality.
-
Filesystem Federation — Fedora 4 has the ability to expose external content, as if it were a part of the repository. Federation may be useful for migrating content into Fedora 4 or serving large files already on disk.
Modeshape's federation overview provides more background on how federation works and the underlying concepts.
Note: The term "projection" is sometimes used as a synonym for the "federation" feature.
-
Clustering — To support horizontal scalability use cases as well as geographic distribution, Fedora 4 can be configured as a cluster of application servers.
The available clustering configuration options cater to different use cases and systems. Consult the adminstrator's page on clustering for details.

Supplementary Information
-
Identifiers — Identifiers can be specified in REST API calls and generated either automatically using the internal PID minter or via an external REST service.
-
Linked Data Platform — The W3C Linked Data Platform (LDP) specification describes a set of best practices and simple approach for a read-write Linked Data architecture, based on HTTP access to web resources that describe their state using the RDF data model. Fedora 4 implements the LDP specification for create, read, update and delete (CRUD) operations, allowing HTTP, REST, and linked data clients to make requests to Fedora 4.
-
External Content — When referencing content hosted outside of the repository, you can create an empty binary to act as a placeholder for the external content, specifying the URL of the external content.
