For example, to what degree could Fedora be used as a component of Archivematica? I'll answer my own question, "Very little." Archivematica [1] is distributed as a virtual software appliance, and Fedora is not a part of the distribution. Archivematica seems to use the local file system for storage and a host of other pieces of software to manage metadata and processes. Interesting!
