Project Overview
<Insert description>
Fedora 3 Details
The York University Libraries upgration project identifies collections that cover the range of object models that the repository uses. The conservative goal is to perform an upgration on the collections listed below. The stretch goal is an upgration all of all objects in the repository.
By upgration, we mean upgrating and migrating objects and datastreams, along with security restrictions (XACML), in Fedora 3.8.0 to Fedora 4.x. Moreover, we will develop a strategy for upgrading and migrating our content models, including inline XML datastreams, managed datastreams, and external datastreams.
York University Digital Library (YUDL) is an Islandora repository that run on the HEAD version of all Islandora Foundation modules. The repository is run as close a stock/generic Islandora instance where possible. Therefore, this upgration pilot can serve as a basis for a generic Islandora Fedora 3.x to Fedora 4.x upgration.

Fedora 3 Details
Storage: Legacy storage (or Akubra)
YUDL uses a stock Akubra storage implementation.
XML metadata : datastreams
See object models above.
XML metadata : inline
See object models above.
Content models
See object models above.
Datastream types (inline, managed, redirect, and external)
YUDL/Islandora uses inline, managed, and external datastream types. The list of objects models above should cover all uses of datastream types.
Identifiers
YUDL/Islandora uses custom namespaces for PIDs. In addition, standard Islandora URL structure and can overridden and user friendly URLs can be minted with Islandora Pathauto. For more information, see the YUDL URI Policy.
Indexing strategies (GSearch, RI-Search vs. F4 approaches)
YUDL/Islandora uses GSearch and the Resource Index.
Replication/Journaling
YUDL does not take advantage of replication or journaling.
Security policies: XACML
YUDL/Islandora uses XACML for a variety of access use cases; access to edit specific datastreams, access to view specific datastreams, access to view the object. YUDL/Islandora uses some of the default Fedora 3.x XACML policies, plus Islandora Foundation supplied XACML policies.

OAI-PMH
YUDL/Islandora does not use the Fedora OAI-PMH module. YUDL/Islandora uses the Islandora OAI-PMH module.
Versions
YUDL/Islandora takes advantage of version. Nearly every datastream is versionable, and can be view/reverted in the Islandora admin interface given the proper permissions.
Disseminators
YUDL/Islandora does not use disseminators.
Audit history
YUDL/Islandora uses the audit history for the Islandora PREMIS, Islandora Checksum, and Islandora Checksum Checker modules.
