Opencast and SWITCH
When the Swiss National Research and Education Network SWITCH were looking for a robust and open video management platform, they chose Opencast. SWITCH offer services to a range of education and research customers with high expectations of service quality. SWITCH decided to improve the already robust Opencast software with a community initiative. Quality Booster brought together nine institutions in the Opencast community to book almost 500 hours of additional quality assurance to the Opencast release process. The entire community of Opencast adopters gained from the SWITCH initiative.

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.
