  • Josh Klein

  • Geoff McElhanon

  • Don Dailey

Notes

1.Deployment Benchmarks (continued from November)

Default template from Michigan/TRIG project looked like an acceptable instrument. Few changes suggested:

  • Add BulkLoad interchanges used where bulk performance data is imcluded

  • Clarify that "processor count" is number of cores

  • Clarify on sheet 3 that "build time" is dashboard build time

  • AZ performance work might be a model for API performance specs

Action: Eric to distribute to most mature Ed-Fi ODS implementations

Action: MI/Dirk to send out SCOM report to TAG to see if that might be useful (for future discussion)

2.  2017 Roadmap updates

See attached deck. Feedback:

  • Alignment with agency cycles makes sense.

  • Version number synchronization is a problem

  • Technical Congress:

    • Stay away from  spring break (late March/early April)

    • Sooner so it can be booked

    • Plug for Midwest given concentration of Ed-Fi 

    • In future, have implementers host the meeting 

3.TAG Changes

Comments:

  • MI/TRIG is an example of a collaborative that is more formal and prepared to represent itself - is there a way to make sure these needs are represented?

  • Clarification that the division of vendors into integrators and product vendors is still part of the plan
