About the Developer Portal

The Tech Leads group

The Developer Portal (developer.ucsd.edu) is created and maintained by the ACT Tech Leads group which is made up of technical representatives across various application and systems groups.

Guiding Principal

Identify and architect technical solutions in support of ACT’s strategic initiatives. Facilitate the sharing of technical strategies, solutions and roadblocks amongst peers within ACT.

Purpose

While ACT continues to standardize on a software, platform and system architecture, there are many different approaches to implement and integrate various components.  With direction from the Enterprise Architecture Steering Group (AESG), the Technical Leads Workgroup will continuously set technology standards and guidelines, review and adopt new technologies, manage the technology/tools inventory, and focus on producing stable and forward-looking frameworks and systems.  This group provides a means to share, collaborate and initiate response on implementing these approved technologies.  This group will be responsible for proof-of-concept, guidelines, best practices and implementation documentation on these technologies.  The goal will be to increase productivity, avoid duplication of effort across groups and eliminate redundant and legacy infrastructure.
