The Samvera (originally called Hydra) Community benefits from the breadth and depth of knowledge that its adopters bring and, in particular, from the contributions of [its formal Partners](https://samvera.org/samvera-partners/) who commit to its long term development and viability. - -Working together, the Samvera Community continues to develop a common infrastructure with the flexibility to tailor solutions to specific demands and workflows. Our software leverages other [“best in class” open source software](https://samvera.org/samvera-open-source-repository-framework/technology-stack/) to provide a framework within which adopters can create a customized solution or choose from “off-the-shelf” solution bundles. The software embraces open, international standards, where possible.  The community adheres to acknowledged “best practice” for software design and development, learning from each other without duplicating effort. - -Questions are always welcome. Take a look in our [FAQ](https://samvera.org/samvera-community-sourced-software/faq/) and across the website, or join us on our [samvera-community list or Samvera Slack channel](https://samvera.org/getting-started/communication/) to get input from the community.
