Data Integration

ClassLink Roster Server is rostering software that connects student information system data to educational applications through OneRoster. ClassLink Roster Server manages scheduled data sharing, preprocessing, and vendor connections so schools can maintain consistent accounts and class rosters across learning tools.

The roster relationship connects source students, staff, classes, and enrollments with approved vendors. District data and application owners coordinate mappings, sharing scope, and how additions or withdrawals reach each destination. A successful transfer can still carry a mismatched identity or an inappropriate field value. Source ownership and agreed receiving rules give the technical exchange its business meaning.

The work continues after the first successful exchange. A source correction, new school year, vendor update, or failed transfer can change what receiving applications know. Application owners and technical teams coordinate monitoring, exception review, and approved changes so that synchronized data continues to represent the intended students, staff, classes, and services.

CPSI provides education data-integration, validation, identity, warehouse, and reporting tools. Its xD toolsets collect information from operational systems, standardize and validate records, and organize data for exchange or analysis. District and agency teams use the selected tools around their own information sources.

The platform organizes movement and transformation between education records and reporting stores. District data owners and technical staff coordinate identity rules, validation, and the meaning of fields before information is combined. A successful transfer can still carry a mismatched identity or an inappropriate field value. Source ownership and agreed receiving rules give the technical exchange its business meaning.

Edlink is a unified integration API for education technology companies. A vendor builds one connection to Edlink and can then exchange authorized data with many SIS, LMS, identity, and roster providers instead of developing and maintaining a separate connector for every platform used by schools.

The vendor-facing API connects to district-authorized sources and scopes. District and application teams still coordinate consent to share, field meaning, record matching, and handling of changes across connected products. A successful transfer can still carry a mismatched identity or an inappropriate field value. Source ownership and agreed receiving rules give the technical exchange its business meaning.

Instructure Elevate Data Sync is an education interoperability platform that moves roster, student, staff, course, and learning information between student information systems and other applications. It replaces separate vendor-by-vendor integrations with centrally managed connections that understand common education standards and proprietary SIS formats.

The service sits between authoritative school records and applications that consume them. District and vendor teams coordinate field mappings, student matching, permissions, and the handling of enrollment changes. A successful transfer can still carry a mismatched identity or an inappropriate field value. Source ownership and agreed receiving rules give the technical exchange its business meaning.

Level Data Integration Services is a managed K–12 interoperability offering that automates data movement between a district's SIS or HR system and the operational applications that depend on it. Typical connections provision directory accounts and keep food service, transportation, library, learning, assessment, and other systems synchronized without district staff maintaining separate integration scripts.

One source correction can affect several receiving services. District application owners and technical staff coordinate field meaning, update schedules, and exception handling so synchronization preserves the operational intent of the data. A successful transfer can still carry a mismatched identity or an inappropriate field value. Source ownership and agreed receiving rules give the technical exchange its business meaning.

Marcia Brenner Associates (MBA) develops plugins and provides professional services for PowerSchool SIS. Its products extend PowerSchool with specialized scheduling, attendance, behavior, reporting, fees, device management, data protection, summer-school, and other workflows, while its consulting services cover customization, training, and administrative support.

An SIS extension works within the district’s existing student-data environment. SIS administrators and program owners coordinate field definitions, permissions, version compatibility, and the effect of changes on other workflows.

Microsoft School Data Sync (SDS) is a Microsoft 365 Education service that imports organization, user, role, course, class, and enrollment data from a district's SIS or student-management system. It uses those records to establish education-specific identities and rosters for Microsoft Teams, Intune for Education, and other Microsoft 365 or compatible third-party experiences.

SIS roles and enrollments become Microsoft education groups and class context. SIS and Microsoft administrators coordinate matching, organizational scope, and term transitions so access follows current source records. A successful transfer can still carry a mismatched identity or an inappropriate field value. Source ownership and agreed receiving rules give the technical exchange its business meaning.

The work continues after the first successful exchange. A source correction, new school year, vendor update, or failed transfer can change what receiving applications know. Application owners and technical teams coordinate monitoring, exception review, and approved changes so that synchronized data continues to represent the intended students, staff, classes, and services.

ReadWrite Digital Integrator is an integration-platform-as-a-service built for K–12 data and identity automation. It connects SIS and HR sources with directories, identity platforms, learning applications, device systems, assessment tools, and other district services so accounts, rosters, attributes, and operational data stay synchronized.

SIS and HR records become accounts, groups, and application data through defined transformations. District data owners and IT teams coordinate source authority, update timing, and resolution of mismatched records. A successful transfer can still carry a mismatched identity or an inappropriate field value. Source ownership and agreed receiving rules give the technical exchange its business meaning.

School Passport is the education data-exchange service associated with GG4L and SchoolDay. It connects school information sources with participating applications to support roster sharing and digital access. District technology teams use its integrations to coordinate application data without maintaining separate manual exchanges for every provider.

A roster exchange connects source identities and classes with an approved application. District and vendor teams coordinate permissions, field mappings, school scope, and the timing of additions or removals. A successful transfer can still carry a mismatched identity or an inappropriate field value. Source ownership and agreed receiving rules give the technical exchange its business meaning.

Global Grid for Learning (GG4L) rebranded as SchoolDay in April 2025. The SchoolDay platform connects district data systems and approved edtech applications through governed data exchange, rostering and application-access services.

The service sits between school data owners and approved receiving applications. Technology and program teams coordinate what is shared, how people and classes are matched, and when updates reach each destination. A successful transfer can still carry a mismatched identity or an inappropriate field value. Source ownership and agreed receiving rules give the technical exchange its business meaning.
