ATLANTA, June 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Authentica Solutions, a data integration and data management leader, announced today the release of DataSense RapidRoster.

RapidRoster allows educational institutions to quickly connect disparate academic systems to facilitate the interchange of student enrollment and teacher assignments.

DataSense is an IPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service) solution and a 2017 winner of the EdTech Digest Cool Tool Award for Best District Data Solution. DataSense IPaaS provides one central administrative web UI for building, deploying, managing, and monitoring all of the data integration processes across multiple applications. The DataSense solution provides an easier way for educational institutions to share all their purposeful data between their software applications.  RapidRoster is one of components of the DataSense Cloud Solutions offered by Authentica.  

Student Information Systems supported by DataSense RapidRoster today include: PowerSchool, Illuminate SIS, Central Access, and Student Data Sync from Microsoft. The data elements extracted include outbound OneRoster® formatted student and teacher roster data. 

Russell Long, Authentica's CEO, said "Our mission is to accelerate the flow of learning. In releasing DataSense RapidRoster, we are giving back to school districts and the EdTech community. Now it is very easy for schools to set up data flows between their SIS and other K12 applications using our self-service wizard. Education technology should help students learn ? not leave school districts stressed about data management and application integrations. We help schools better manage their OneRoster® data through DataSense RapidRoster!"

IMS Global Learning Consortium is a community of education and technology leaders from around the world working together to advance an open architecture that supports learning in the digital age. Its new OneRoster standard is focused on the schools' needs to exchange roster information, including a standardized CSV file format that replaces what is typically exchanged between schools and their vendors.
