- Beyond the complexities faced by typical asset management or institutional repository systems, research data presents a number of complications, including complex hierarchies of related objects that must be modeled and displayed, a wider array of data formats that must be supported, and domain-specific metadata that is necessary to make data intelligible. Managing these complications often leads to software that is tailored to a particular domain, making it difficult to maintain or share. This presentation will provide an overview of how Fedora support supports research data management, including the roadmap for future development and integrations. Fedora is a flexible, extensible, open source repository platform for storing, managing, and preserving digital content, including research data. Fedora is used in a wide variety of institutions including libraries, museums, archives, and government organizations. Fedora supports research data management by providing key repository features such as support for millions of resources and files of any size, native linked data functionality, advanced data modeling, and preservation services. Fedora is also extremely well-suited to integrations with existing researcher workflows via a well-documented REpresentational State Transfer (REST) API and event-based messaging service.
