Creators: Jermaine Harris

Architecture and live probe of Ferrum Research, a MIT-licensed InvenioRDM-shaped IR on one VM (Axum, SQLite/WAL, FTS5, Fil S3, ClamAV). Only dataset and publication deposits; OA ingest via arXiv/Unpaywall/OpenAlex; Sci-Hub and SSRN scrape refused. Public search TTFB for q=arxiv was 0.334 s mean (n=10) over WAN. Not a Zenodo-scale claim.
