AbstractThe
Center for Applied Systems and Software (CASS) is an experiential learning program for students. Our self-funded program provides hands-on learning for students on real world projects for our customers. Join us to learn about CASS and how we are working with the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) to move a large, monolithic, n-tier enterprise application to a Microservices Architecture. We’ll review how we are modernizing their primary computer-aided dispatch (CAD) tool, which was built from the ground up via a partnership between CASS and ODOT over the past 15 years. More than just a buzz word, we’ll take a look at how the Microservices Architecture is bringing benefits early in the project, including approaches we are taking to adapt all layers from the backend to the user interface.
