Streamlining Education: Build and Host a Robust Learning Management System in AppSail

Technology in education has revolutionized the way we teach and learn. It has transformed the traditional classroom setup into virtually accessible platforms where students can learn at their own pace. Among the most notable advancements in this space is the Learning Management System (LMS). The LMS has become an invaluable tool for businesses, educators, and learners alike. And now, you can build and host an LMS on AppSail using your favorite development framework.

What is AppSail?

AppSail is a Managed Kubernetes service, offered by Zoho, allowing you to host containerized applications and services. BETTER INC., a technology solutions company, leveraged AppSail and Zoho Catalyst to build and host a sophisticated LMS platform. By using AppSail, they managed to optimize the performance of their applications, scale efficiently, and ensure high availability for their users.

Utilizing AppSail and Zoho Catalyst to build an LMS

AppSail and Zoho Catalyst come with several features that make them the ideal choice for building an LMS. Firstly, both are backed by Kubernetes, making scaling an easy task, from handling hundreds of students to multiple thousands. Secondly, they offer embedded database services and BaaS capabilities, eliminating the need to manage and operate databases, which can be a time-consuming process. Plus, with the introduction of the Catalyst DataConnect, data can be synchronized across applications, making data management efficient and smooth.

Setting up the LMS with AppSail and Zoho Catalyst

To set up your LMS with AppSail and Zoho Catalyst, begin by creating a Docker image for each microservice in your application, followed by deploying these Docker images into AppSail. The next step is to link your database with services using Zoho Catalyst. Once that is done, you can integrate with the user management system to identify and authenticate users. Finally, with the Catalyst SDK, build the front-end of the LMS and integrate it with your backend services. Now, your LMS is ready, efficient, scalable, and robust!

Key Components of the LMS

The LMS built in AppSail and Zoho Catalyst included three key components:

• User Interface – A web application built with React.js providing a seamless interface for users to navigate through courses and contents.
• LMS Backend Services – Consisting of micro-services deployed in AppSail which handle all the business logic of the LMS.
• Database – PostgreSQL database hosted on Zoho Catalyst, storing all the LMS-related data.
