- Lakesuperior
- ============
- |build status| |docs| |pypi| |codecov|
- Lakesuperior is a Linked Data repository software. It is capable of storing and
- managing large volumes of files and their metadata regardless of their
- format, size, ethnicity, gender identity or expression.
- Lakesuperior is an alternative `Fedora Repository
- <http://fedorarepository.org>`__ implementation. Fedora is a mature repository
- software system historically adopted by major cultural heritage institutions
- which extends the `Linked Data Platform <https://www.w3.org/TR/ldp-primer/>`__
- protocol.
- Guiding Principles
- ------------------
- Lakesuperior aims at being a reliable and efficient Fedora 4 implementation.
- Its main goals are:
- - **Reliability:** Based on solid technologies with stability in mind.
- - **Efficiency:** Small memory and CPU footprint, high scalability.
- - **Ease of management:** Tools to perform migration, monitoring and
- maintenance included.
- - **Simplicity of design:** Straight-forward architecture, robustness
- over features.
- Key features
- ------------
- - Stores binary files and RDF metadata in one repository.
- - Multi-modal access: REST/LDP, command line and native Python API.
- - (`almost <fcrepo4_deltas>`_) Drop-in replacement for Fedora4
- - Very stable persistence layer based on
- `LMDB <https://symas.com/lmdb/>`__ and filesystem. Fully
- ACID-compliant writes guarantee consistency of data.
- - Term-based search and SPARQL Query API + UI
- - No performance penalty for storing many resources under the same
- container, or having one resource link to many URIs
- - Extensible provenance metadata tracking
- - Fits in a pocket: you can carry 50M triples in an 8Gb memory stick.
