Overview
Blue is the course and instructor evaluation system used at Tufts. Each year, the evaluation data needs to be collected, processed and transmitted to two systems: Symplectic Elements (SoE instructor and course data) and Faculty Success (A&S instructor and course data). Additionally, all the ASE data and Fletcher data is typically consumed in a tableau dashboard.
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 virtualization and preparation
Snaplogic, for trasmitting the data to Elements and Activity Insight
