E-Learning
LIS Gateway is an implementation of the IMS Global Learning Information Services (LIS)
standard (version 2.0.x).
It is a mechanism that allows the Learning Management System to be integrated with any
Student Information System which supports the IMS LIS standard.
Interfaces with Blackboard – used by University of Johannesburg.
Busy with POC for Moodle
– https://www.k-int.com/products/LIS-for-Moodle (Licensing cost)
Moodle is being used to set up ITS Integrated training courses.

Pre-Installation of INT4
Page 15
Requesting a quotation to upgrade the following will be requested:
• Do you intend acquiring new hardware for the upgrade?
• Do you have a separate server for the Test environment?
• Do you have a separate server for the i_Enabler (self-service)?
• Do you have any other environments other that the Test environment?
• If so indicate how many environments? E.g. Pre-prod , standby database, etc
• What operating system does your environment run on?
• If on Red Hat or Oracle Linux do you want Adapt IT to install this operating system ?

Installation of INT4
Page 16
Integrator 4 is a complete new technology upgrade.
• Hardware must be compatible with operating system.
• Application server INT3 cannot run on the same server as INT4
• Operating System need to be reinstalled
– INT3 IAS EE was only certified for Linux 5x.
Database server
• Recommended that the operating system is upgraded if not on Linux7.
• Other operating systems need to compatible with Oracle 12c database.
• INT3 database can run with INT4 database

Installation of INT4
Page 17
Test install
• Move test environment to production server (need space)
• New hardware or VM Server
• Cloud environment (depending on connectivity)
– Remove once live and install on INT4 Test server.
Production install
• Remove INT3 if no new hardware - Risk
• New hardware or VM server
