David Walker Information & Educational Technology University of California, Davis DHWalker@ucdavis.edu UC Middleware Needs
UC Middleware Needs • UCTrust Integration • Federated Processes • Do we need common middleware in the first place? • What do we mean by “common” middleware?
University of California • Ten campus • Five medical centers • Lawrence Berkeley National Lab • Office of the President • One legal entity
IT Environment • Nearly all operation at each location • Local authority and responsibility for the “business” of the University • Some shared components • Employee systems • Student application system • UCTrust
What We Need • Interoperable, robust, secure solutions that enhance reuse and sharing of software among UC locations
Example • User Provisioning for LMS, Connexxus
UCTrust Integration • UCTrust is really just part of InCommon • LoA • Entitlements
Federated Processes • Intercampus work flow, service bus, etc. to support: • Shared Infrastructure • Software as a Service
