<p>Join the fedora4lib Developer Challenge at code4lib!</p>

<p>From now until 10am Thursday, 14 February, we&#8217;re accepting submissions for the
fedora4lib Developer Challenge.</p>

<p>Your starting point, clone: <a href="https://github.com/futures/fcrepo4">https://github.com/futures/fcrepo4</a></p>

<p>We very much believe that &#8220;The coolest thing to do with your data will be thought of by someone else&#8221;,
but here are some ideas we&#8217;ve been playing with, which you could fork and run with:</p>

<ul>
<li>Indexing services

<ul>
<li>A <a href="https://github.com/futures/ff-indexer-fourstore">4Store-based RDF indexing service</a></li>
<li>A <a href="https://github.com/futures/ff-jms-solr-indexing">Solr 4 indexing service</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Sequencers
<p>a. <a href="https://github.com/futures/fcrepo4/tree/jruby-sequencer-example">JRuby</a> and Scala examples for processing object events and manipulating content</p></li>
<li><p>Modern approaches to scaling</p>

<ul>
<li>Amazon Glacier Storage Service</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>APIs
<p> a. replicating and distributing digital objects across multiple nodes for throughput and high-availability</p></li>
</ol>

<ul>
<li>CDL storage service API implementation</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>

<p>Where is Fedora 4 going? We very much believe that “The coolest thing to do with your data will be thought of by someone else”, and we know you&#8217;ve got ideas you couldn&#8217;t realize on Fedora 3.</p>

<p>Prizes to be awarded on Thursday include a $500.00 first prize, a $250.00 second prize, plus bottles from our <a href="/brews">prize list</a>).</p>
<p>What do you want your repository backend to do? Can you hack it into the Fedora 4 prototype by Thursday? The best code submission for indexers, web APIs, message listeners or improvements to the prototype will win a $500 cash prize, and the second place entry will win $250. Pull requests welcome!</p>

<p>For more information, visit us at <a href="/programme">Fedora House</a> on Monday and Tuesday nights!</p>

<p>The APIs: TBA. Currently, we have the legacy Fedora 3.x APIs implemented and a subset of the CDL Storage Service APIs stubbed out.</p>

<p>The Architecture: TBA.</p>

<p>The mailing list: <a href="https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/ff-tech">ff-tech</a></p>

<p>The wiki: <a href="https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/FF/">https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/FF/</a></p>

<p>Lies, Damn Lies and Benchmarks: TBA, some <a href="preliminary%20results">https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/FF/Fedora+3.6.2+test+results</a> and visualizations have been collected for Fedora 3.6.2.</p>
