Fedora, was released into production in November. This significant release
signals the effectiveness of an international and complex community driven
open source project delivering a modern repository platform with features
that meet or exceed current use cases in the management of institutional
digital assets. Fedora 4 features include vast improvements in scalability,
linked data capabilities, research data support, modularity, ease of use
and more. This webinar will provide an overview of Fedora 4 with a focus on
the latest features and developments.
