Migrating a Fedora 3-based Hydra repository to Fedora 4 can be a major undertaking. This panel will bring together representatives from multiple institutions that either are planning for, are in the midst of, or have completed such a migration. Depending on where they are in the migration process, panelists will talk about their plans for migration, techniques used or expected to be used, obstacles anticipated or encountered, how problems were addressed, and migration outcomes. It is hoped that the presentations and discussion will be useful to other Hydra sites planning such a migration. A video of this session is available at the 'Related URL' below. and A presentation given at Hydra Connect 2016 described thus

A presentation given at the Open Repositories conference in 2015 held in Indianapolis described thus and Avalon Media System requires support for complex structure and modular descriptive metadata management. Use cases and examples will examine options for Avalon in Fedora such as the RDF data model in Fedora 4, static XML datastreams, and external data stores to determine which path best fits structural and descriptive metadata needs for time-based media.

Indiana University Bloomington Libraries is involved in two new projects to digitize and store content and related metadata. Each of these projects presents unique challenges. We want to use the same technology stack for both, however, so we are choosing Fedora as a storage mechanism, with Hydra-based Sufia as a repository front end. We will discuss our decision, show advantages of this Hydra/Fedora framework, and discuss advantages of moving to Fedora 4. We will also contrast this framework with the way we might have approached these projects in the past with previous versions of Fedora and before Sufia or Hydra were options. and A presentation given at the Open Repositories conference in 2015 held in Indianapolis described thus
