Community-Based Software Application Built on ColdFusion to Power Dot.Edu (SM)

 
Dec 07, 2005
Prometheus, a community-based, open architecture software platform that meets the online needs of educational institutions, has announced that it has been selected by dot.edu(SM) (a distributed learning systems provider based out of the University of Wisconsin System) to provide software for dot.edu's partner institutions.

In 1997, a team at The George Washington University in Washington, D.C. began to develop their own online learning software because the available software was not as easy to use, flexible, or scalable as faculty and students at a major university needed. As a result, the team created Prometheus, a scalable software based on proven technologies such as leading databases from Oracle and Microsoft as well as an open-source code application built in ColdFusion.
