HC2016 Audio / Video Master List
Notes:
We had audio issues at the beginning of both days and so did sadly miss a few sessions for those wondering why they aren't linked here (apologies!). Some of the earlier Tuesday sessions linked below have fainter audio from a time prior to getting the sound software boosted. Finally: we have audio only recordings for a bunch of sessions that are linked after the video recordings section.
Video Recordings:

State of the Hydrasphere | Tom Cramer, Debra Hanken Kurtz | This annual report on the Hydra Project will provide a synopsis of the project’s current state from a high level perspective, including recent developments and important trends in adoption and activiity, the technical framework, the community framework, major projects and milestones, and where we may be going in the near future. With so much activity in so many different parts of the project, this session is a chance to take a step back from the many trees to survey the whole forest of the HydraSphere. | Video (Very Low Audio for half of this and then just regular Low Audio - max out volume with headphones to hear) |
Interest / Working Groups Part 1 | Various | Lightning reports from various Hydra Interest / Working Groups. | Video |
Progress report: Hydra in a Box | Hannah Frost, Mike Giarlo | An update on recent progress on the Hydra in a Box project, including work related to product development for the repository and metadata aggregation components, development of the hosted service, development and infrastructural decisions, and community engagement. | Video |
Interest / Working Groups Part 2 | Various | Lightning reports from various Hydra Interest / Working Groups. | Video |

---|---|---|---|
Jisc RDSS Hydra Connect 2016 slides.pptx | Chris Awre | An overview of the Jisc Research Data Management Shared Service initiative in the UK, looking to establish a set of infrastructural components that academic institutions can combine to provide an overall RDM solution. Hydra has been shortlisted as one of the repository components that an initial group of pilot institutions can use. | Video |
Cavendish.pdf | Benjamin Armintor | Cavendish endeavours to be both an implementation of LDP and a laboratory for elaborating Fedora 4 APIs as extensions of the LDP specification. We are also interested in better understanding how the constituent frameworks of a Fedora 4 implementation influence the way its core model is understood- in this case, building a Fedora on a triplestore. Cavendish is built on BlazeGraph. | Video |
Making XML Schema Validation more reliable | David Cliff | When the Library of Congress was recently attacked, we noticed an important part of our workflow ground to a halt - XML schema validation had failed. We've developed a gem that allows for schema mirroring and offline validation/rspec testing, which we hope might be of use to others. | Video |
Ruby and Rails Resources for New and Not So New Hydra Developers | Steven Ng | A lightning fast overview of free or cheap, cool and useful Ruby and Rails web sites, blogs, podcasts, videos, and users groups for new and not-so-new Hydra developers. I'll talk fast, but don't worry, I'll post the links on-line before the talk. | Video |
Handles_Sufia_Integration.pptx | Chris Bartos | Quick overview of the implementation of Handle System (https://www.handle.net) support into a Curation Concerns / Sufia application. | Video |
Docker_Hydra_Slides.pptx | Corey Hinshaw | Hydra applications can interact with a number of backing services (Fedora, Solr, Redis, job runners, etc). Using Docker to run these services locally can potentially simplify the development environment and reduce on-boarding time. | Video |
Performance Profiling Tools used for HydraNorth | Peter Binkley | We encountered big performance hurdles with our Sufia6 based application HydraNorth, and this is a quick overview of tools we used to help us monitoring and profiling the performance of our application, and restoring sanity to our team. | Video |
Fedora OAI Provider | Weiwei Shi | An overview of the work we did to improve performance on the Fedora OAI provider by adding a MapDB index to ModeShape. The modified version of fcrepo4-oaiprovider has brought the response time for a full ListRecords from 4 minutes down to 25 seconds. | Video |
I love you Fedora, but it's over | Steven Anderson | The Boston Public Library has long been a Fedora 3 Commons system and we are heavily invested in that backend. After waiting to see how Fedora 4 Commons develops and with some recent internal debate, our "next gen" repository solution is going in a different direction. This will be a (perhaps) controversial talk as to why and how we came to this conclusion. | Video |
Fedora 4 Import/Export | Esmé Cowles | Update on the recent work to implement standards-based import/export functionality for Fedora 4, working on importing and exporting Bags for migrating between Fedora repositories, and backing up to and restoring from preservation services such as APTrust, Archivematica, etc. | Video |
Plum at Princeton | Trey Pendragon | An introduction to our workflow ingest tool featuring IIIF manifest generation, structure administration, object re-ordering, and support for multi-volume works. | Video |
Sufia and CurationConcerns Usage (sharing data from annual survey) | Mike |
