INDUSTRY: Education

Business context

Prior to the implementation of the ePlato system in the University our client struggled with handling all business processes in paper mode. There were separate digital services like e-mail or other similar services, but it was not a centralized digital system.

Keeping students' academic success, their academic debt in paper form; paper records of academic staff and their activity, led to late management decisions that significantly lost their effectiveness.

The use of paper circulation of documents related to students and academic staff significantly reduced the efficiency of the work of departments, faculty secretaries and university administration and led to a significant increase in time spent on routine work.

The Solution

In order to unify user identification, we decided to create a single sign-on system using OpenId Connect, which allows users to sign-in either by the means of a separate login-password or by the means of a corporate email account.

To meet the needs of all users who use various operating systems and screen sizes, we created a web application with mobile adaptation of the necessary software modules. The software product works on the basis of the REST API, which will allow other software products to use the existing data from the university digital system, as well as create a mobile application for certain groups of users.

One of the product deployment requirements was the use of the client's own servers (on premise). For natively managing the cluster of Docker containers we used Docker Swarm with multiple nodes. It allowed us to have zero-downtime deployments and reliability of running instances. For monitoring and alerting we used Prometheus & Grafana and Swarmprom which allowed us to deploy industry standard application and infrastructure monitoring system without additional costs.
