Columbia University Single Sign On: From Home-grown to Community
For almost ten years, Columbia University had been running a home-grown web single sign-on (webSSO) system called WIND, and integrating it with a variety of on-campus applications. When Columbia decided to adopt Google Apps they considered the effort required to extend WIND again, and decided it was time to consider a more standards-based approach. Columbia was attracted by the promise of less development, and faster deployment. They chose the Apereo Foundation Central Authentication Service (CAS), an open source WebSSO application that provides authentication for local and cloud-based applications.

The Juilliard School and CAS: Deployment Choices
After choosing CAS, the Juilliard School enlisted Unicon to assist with integrating CAS, Shibboleth, and Microsoft Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) with Microsoft Office 365, an application hosted in the cloud. Unicon also configured, installed, and branded CAS and assisted Juilliard with local single sign-on integrations that linked together Juilliard’s instances of Web Advisor, Drupal, and Atomic Learning.

UniTime and the Faculty of Arts at Masaryk University
When the Faculty of Arts at Masaryk University was faced with building renovation, the old manual timetabling process was no longer sufficient. "This class has always been in this room on Monday morning" and "this professor likes this room" just wasn't going to cut it. They adopted and adapted UniTime, and schedules were published eight weeks after adoption.
