Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Recently COVID-19 emerged and was soon declared as a pandemic due to the high rate of infection. As a result of the public policies arising from COVID-19, millions of people have their daily lives changed. In the case of students, the learning process was impacted. To address this problem, information technology comes into action with solutions such as electronic and mobile learning. In this context, there are several Learning Management System (LMS) that can assist in the learning process, such as Moodle, Blackboard, and Sakai. However, not all LMS have a mobile application to assist students and teachers in accessing their content, thus losing a powerful mechanism to support the learning process. This work proposes three architectures to aggregate and provides a mobile application to LMSs, one that uses the Serverless model and two that uses the Self-hosted model. Each one is composed of a backend and a mobile application. As a result, a performance test is executed on the Serverless architecture to verify the best way to implement the features in terms of performance.
