Overview

Blue is the course and instructor evaluation system used at Tufts. Each year the evaluation data needs to be collected and processed and More information about Blue can be found here: https://tuftsedtech.screenstepslive.com/s/19028/m/73551 , processed and transmitted to two systems: Symplectic Elements (instructor data) and Faculty Success (course data).

To facilitate this process, a workflow has been created that incorporates the following:

• AWS Lambda, for the initial fetching and parsing of Blue data

• Denodo, for data preparation

• Snaplogic, for trasmitting the data to Elements and Activity Insight
