+- Drop-in replacement for Fedora4 (with some caveats: see

+ [Delta document](doc/notes/fcrepo4_deltas.md))—currently being tested with

+ Hyrax 2
|
|
|
+- Stores metadata in a graph store, binaries in filesystem
|
|
|
+- Strives to be faster than Modeshape implementation (benchmarks TBD)
|
|
|
+- Simple search and SPARQL Query API via back-end triplestore (alpha 2)
|
|
|
+- No performance issues storing many resources under the same container; no

+ [kudzu](https://www.nature.org/ourinitiatives/urgentissues/land-conservation/forests/kudzu.xml)

|
|
+ pairtree segmentation [1]

|
|
+- Mitigates "many member" issue: constant performance writing to a resource with
|
|
|
+ many children or members; option to omit children in retrieval
|
|
|
+- Flexible back-end layouts: options to organize information in back end

+- Migration tool (in alpha2)
