## Description

Fedora Repository is a modular open-source platform for managing and preserving digital collections. It serves academic libraries, cultural heritage organizations, universities, and government agencies worldwide. The software provides a RESTful HTTP API, OCFL-based storage for preservation, WebAC authorization, versioning with memento support, fixity checking, and RDF/linked data capabilities. It runs as a Java web application (WAR) on servlet containers like Tomcat 10+ or Jetty 12, and is also distributed as a Docker image. The system requires Java 21 and a relational database (PostgreSQL, MySQL, or MariaDB). The project is stewarded by the Lyrasis organization.
