The managed platform can be provisioned quickly — giving you a ready foundation for the multi-phase work (pilot → parallel → production) that Ed-Fi implementations require. Infrastructure shouldn't be the bottleneck.
Managed upgrades, backups, security patches, and operational hygiene. Ed-Fi toolchains evolve — support timelines and version transitions are a real concern. Managed means you don't get stuck doing emergency upgrades as deadlines approach.
All applications run on infrastructure you control. No vendor lock-in, no third-party data mining, full FERPA compliance by architecture. Your data, your servers, your terms.
The Stack Library is a platform beyond Ed-Fi: 13 stacks and 23 applications spanning interoperability, IT operations, cybersecurity, and teaching — deployable through one platform. Start with what you need, grow without re-platforming.
Ed-Fi is becoming the backbone of state reporting and vendor interoperability. These stacks deliver the managed Ed-Fi foundation — ODS/API, admin tools, and data loading — so your pilot can start now, not next semester.
The challenge: Standing up the Ed-Fi ODS/API and companion tools requires multiple installation and configuration steps, even in 'getting started' modes. Legacy data collection processes mean weeks or months of lag. Ed-Fi's promise is near-real-time data flows — but infrastructure friction blocks that.
Full managed Ed-Fi deployment with visual administration — the recommended starting point for most districts.
Ed-Fi with data import and built-in dashboards — load data in bulk and visualize outcomes, not just raw records.
Multi-tenant Ed-Fi platform for regional service centers and charter networks serving multiple districts from one managed environment.
The tools school IT departments need to run efficiently — help desk ticketing, asset tracking, monitoring, and service management. Start with Ed-Fi, expand to the IT tools districts already need.
The challenge: District IT teams are stretched thin — supporting teachers, managing devices, maintaining networks, and now implementing Ed-Fi. They need enterprise tools but can't justify enterprise staffing.
IT support ticketing so teachers and staff can submit and track technology issues.
Track every Chromebook, laptop, projector, and software license across the district.
Real-time visibility into every server, service, and network device — with alerts before things break.
Modern CMS for the district or ESC website — clean, fast, and easy for non-technical staff to manage.
Professional survey platform for staff feedback, parent engagement, and student assessments.
Internal wiki for SOPs, policies, institutional knowledge, and onboarding documentation.
Automated encrypted backups with web-based management — disaster recovery without the complexity.
Student data protection isn't optional. K-12 ransomware attacks have surged since 2020. These tools provide the threat detection, vulnerability scanning, and compliance reporting that state agencies, auditors, and cyber insurance providers now require.
The challenge: Most cyber insurance policies now require documented security monitoring, vulnerability scanning, and compliance reporting. Districts without these tools face higher premiums — or denial of coverage entirely.
Core instructional technology — learning management, video conferencing, file sharing, and surveys. Open-source alternatives that keep student data under district control, not on third-party servers.
The challenge: Per-student SaaS licensing adds up fast across a district. And every vendor that hosts student data is another FERPA risk, another vendor agreement, another data governance headache.
Lean, secure LMS with built-in video conferencing — SCORM/xAPI compliant without the bloat of legacy PHP platforms.
Compliance-grade LMS with 28 years of institutional trust — SCORM 2004, LTI 1.3, and IMS QTI for standardized assessments.
