Significant ITS Custom Applications<br />

Students, faculty and staff use customized technology daily to meet their needs. ITS continuously<br />

collaborates with our clients to provide the optimum technology support that integrates s<strong>of</strong>tware and<br />

support services. The following list are the significant custom applications developed by UNO ITS that<br />

includes “middleware” to integrate commercial systems with existing ones and web based systems to<br />

support critical <strong>University</strong> requirements.<br />

myUNO (Blackboard 8.0)/SIS<br />

The myUNO (Blackboard) course management system was upgraded to version 8.0 the spring <strong>of</strong> 2008. This<br />

version enhanced the level <strong>of</strong> integration with UNO’s SIS system and improved system performance and<br />

stability.<br />

In-house IS staff<br />

UNO has created an integrated and enhanced campus-wide file storage system with a unique web<br />

enabled method <strong>of</strong> access. By integrating campus standard products such as Micros<strong>of</strong>t Server, web<br />

browser support and SSL web encryption as well as custom integration s<strong>of</strong>tware, the UNO campus<br />

now has a departmental document storage system called web<strong>of</strong>fice that is available to any UNO<br />

department, and an individual document storage system called myFolder that is available to all UNO<br />

faculty, staff and students. The real value <strong>of</strong> these integrated systems is easy access to documents<br />

from any Internet connected computer.<br />

Identity Management<br />

Campus wide web based systems and forms supported by ITS use a shared account name and<br />

password called the UNO NetID. Custom identity management services include NetID<br />

provisioning/de-provisioning, LDAP population, password resets and creation <strong>of</strong> <strong>University</strong> wide<br />

unique identifiers (NU ID). Identity Management processes are being migrated to Sun<br />

Microsystems’s Identity Management Suite.<br />

Sungard SCT - Student Information System (SISPLUS)<br />

UNO’s Student Information System (SIS) supports the core academic business needs <strong>of</strong> UNO<br />

students. SIS includes Admissions, Records and Registration, Billing and Financial Aid modules.<br />

UNO has created custom enhancements to the base SIS system to meet campus specific policies.<br />
