About 02687.com

02687.com is an independent EdTech publication. We publish LMS buyer’s guides and platform comparisons, plus practical guides to architectures, deployment strategies, and engineering decisions for self-hosted educational technology — from Moodle LMS deployments to learning analytics pipelines.

The site is run by a small editorial team focused on a practical question: How do universities and independent educators build resilient, cost-effective digital learning infrastructure without being locked into expensive SaaS monopolies?

What the 02687 Platform Covers

The 02687.com knowledge base is organized across four technical domains:

• Smart Infrastructure: Production-grade Docker Compose blueprints, Nginx reverse proxy configurations, Kubernetes orchestration patterns, and HomeLab self-hosting strategies for campus LMS deployments.
• Data & AI: Knowledge Graph construction with Neo4j for curriculum mapping, xAPI + Learning Record Store (LRS) architectures to replace legacy SCORM systems, and Python ETL pipelines for migrating Student Information System data.
• Security & Identity: SAML 2.0 SSO integration with Azure AD for Moodle, Keycloak campus-wide identity federation, certificate management, and IAM hardening for educational platforms.
• Developer Logs: Hands-on Python automation scripts for Canvas LMS REST APIs, serverless plagiarism detection pipelines on AWS Lambda, containerized auto-grading systems, and Prometheus + Grafana monitoring stacks tuned for LMS workloads.

LMS Buyer’s Guides & Reviews

Beyond infrastructure deep-dives, 02687.com publishes independent LMS buyer’s guides and platform comparisons — for teams choosing a learning management system for corporate training, customer education, healthcare compliance, nonprofits, and higher education. These guides are built from vendor documentation and published pricing, aggregated user ratings, and community feedback. We explain exactly how we score and compare platforms on our review methodology page, and we do not take payment from vendors in exchange for favorable coverage.

Who We Write For

The primary audience of 02687.com includes university IT administrators managing campus LMS infrastructure, EdTech developers building integrations and automation workflows, and independent educators who prefer owning their infrastructure over paying per-seat SaaS licensing fees.

Our technical articles are based on official documentation, release notes, and known issues, and include the common failure modes and trade-offs alongside the working configurations. We use AI tools to help research and draft content, and we check each guide against its sources before publishing. If you spot an error, tell us and we’ll fix it.

Our Technical Philosophy

We favor containers over bare-metal installations, open-source platforms where operational maturity permits, and observability-first deployments — no production stack goes live without monitoring. Student learning data sovereignty is a core principle: where possible, we document architectures that keep institutional data under institutional control rather than in third-party analytics clouds.
