Curation Center (DRCC) at the Sheridan Libraries of Johns Hopkins University, discusses why Fedora 4 with “baked in” linked data capabilities appeals to his organization. He said, "We believe that it can be extended with API-X to improve the native functionality of a Fedora 4 repository. These improvements extend the utility of Fedora’s core feature set by facilitating the mapping of the many and varied domain models currently in use by research communities onto Fedora’s semantic-web-based data model and interface."
The API Extensions Framework provides a means to add functionality to Fedora using standardized, sharable components. The Fedora API Extension Architecture (API-X) recently released the framework to the community for testing. Read more here. link (to come)
Fedora Leadership Group members from Northwestern University, Stanford University, the University of California, San Diego, and the University of Virginia participated in a vigorous panel discussion on the role of Fedora in a digital preservation solution at the recent 2016 CNI Fall Membership Meeting.

The first milestone release of the API Extension Architecture is now publicly available. A Docker-based demonstration of API-X with accompanying step-by-step evaluation guide has been prepared for those who are interested in concretely exploring API-X and providing valuable feedback. Please take a look at it, give it a try, and provide feedback. An introductory video providing an overview of API-X can also be found on YouTube. Read more here.
