We Are Live in Spite of it All!
Created by Susan Miltenberger (Maryland Institute College of Art) on October 28, 2007
We technicaly began our Oracle/PeopleSoft Campus Solutions and Portal upgrades in May 2007 and, having made my way through countless upgrades/implementations over the past eight years, this project has been suprising uneventful. Just to shake things up a bit we threw in a few wrenches of our own -- deciding to implement the new versions on vmWare, deploying a new SSL switch/load balancer and using (the new for us) Oracle Application Server.

One of the attributes the really pride ourselves on here at MICA is the ability to be agile. When we have a change in plans or challenges that appear at the last minute, our team is not only great at adapting, they often use it as an opportunity to expand knowledge and learn from the experience.

Implementation: What Have You Done for Me Lately?
Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:Implementation: What Have You Done for Me Lately? (ID: CMR0214)
Author(s):Peter Quan (California State University, Los Angeles)
Origin:Presented at CUMREC Conferences (Archives) (2002)

When it comes to the question, "What have you done for me lately?", this approach really delivers the goods.
