AcademicEdge, a Java(tm) JEE
based
student services system for gathering and processing critical information at
colleges and universities. The system comprises: Recruitment,
Admission, Registrar, Student Transcript, Financial Aid, Bursar and
Alumni functions. These modules can be implemented individually or
as an integrated suite.
AcademicEdge is a service
oriented application (SOA).
SOA is a style of software architecture that uses services to satisfy
user requirements. SOA can help an Institution respond to changing
needs rapidly and cost-effectively. SOA promotes reuse of services
as opposed to reuse of Objects. SOA consists of exposing system
functionalities as web services, registering them with an Universal
Description, Discovery and Integration (UDDI)
registry, securing them and managing them using SOA governance tool.
SOA allows an Institution to integrate its student services system,
legacy systems and create business processes that will satisfy
current and future business requirements easily and cost-effectively.
AcademicEdge is modular and
allows an Institution to install selected components to
incrementally replace its legacy system.
AcademicEdge is flexible, scalable, cost-effective and manageable. AcademicEdge system and
implementation details are given in the
Overview page. You can view

presentation now.
We have used IBM WebSphere
Business Modeler to model AcademicEdge business process and
WebSphere Integration Developer to develop and deploy business
processes to IBM WebSphere Process Server. Please view the
business process presentation for
additional information and a demonstration of a
business process
running in a WebSphere Process Server AcademicEdge has been
validated to work with IBM middleware and listed in
IBM SOA business catalog.
We have implemented a demo application
for execution in a Sun Java Application Server 9, MySQL and MS Windows 2003 Server.
The system can be implemented in your choice of Application Server,
Relational database and Operating System. You can view the
demo
application and web services here.
The total cost of installing
and maintaining an application includes customization, license fees
& labor costs over a given time period. AcademicEdge can be
installed in a Linux, MySQL and Sun Application server setting.
Typical MySQL TCO savings and DBA savings are shown below. You can
customize & recalculate these using your expected implementation
environment.
