Modular Architecture
Standard and modular building blocks make sense in building and future-proofing complex Web portal applications. The key underlying building blocks for any student self-service solution are:
- A directory to manage user access, access rights, and set policies.
Directories house all the constituent data - who they are, what privileges they have, and what part of your business they need to interact with.
- An application server for building Web-based student applications and presenting dynamic content to the Web.
- A portal server to deliver applications customized and packaged for the student's specific needs.
- An integration server to easily link up crucial DARTs?.
- A messaging and mail server.
- Development tools such as J2EE to help put it all together.
