esign of an Information System for Supporting Educational Processes in Higher Education Institutions

Abstract

The article explores topical issues of designing a modern information system designed to effectively support educational processes in higher education institutions (HEIs). In the context of increasing digitalization of the educational environment, continuous development of information infrastructure, and growing requirements for transparency and efficiency of educational management, the construction of flexible and scalable information platforms is becoming increasingly important. The author analyzes existing approaches to the organization of information systems in higher education and proposes a model based on the principles of Domain-Driven Design (DDD). The proposed model allows to clearly structure educational processes, reflect the internal logic of the institution's activities and ensure convenient interaction between different categories of users. The main components of the proposed information system are identified: modules for managing the contingent of students, administering curricula and programs, an evaluation module and the formation of official documents (including diploma supplements). Particular emphasis is placed on ensuring a high level of information security and protection of personal data through centralized authorization based on the OAuth2 protocol and the use of JWT tokens. In addition, the advantages of the microservice architecture of the system are described, which involves the use of separate databases for each module, which ensures the independence of components, ease of scaling and effective support of the system as a whole. The author outlines the prospects for further development of the information system through the integration of additional services, the use of analytics and intelligent systems, which will significantly expand the functionality and improve the quality of management decisions in higher education institutions.
