Our New Year’s Resolution
By Kiran Kodithala, N2N CEO and Founder
I have been supporting educational institutions since 1998 with their administrative student information systems. During the last 18 years, I have supported institutions with ERP implementation, Enterprise Architecture, Application Development and overall Enterprise Management. The first 10 years of my professional career included supporting educational institutions with their Systems Integration needs and I realized the plight of IT staff at these institutions. They are constantly being challenged to integrate the ERP system that was designed in 1980’s with the latest products and solutions. The existing approach of using scripts, batch jobs, and other deprecated technologies was getting increasingly cumbersome and expensive.
I founded N2N in 2010 with a singular mission to make seamless integration affordable for us. To this effect, we designed an integration platform that seamlessly integrates campus infrastructure with the different products on-campus. Over the last 6 years, we have successfully integrated the legacy SIS systems with Mobile Applications, SaaS products, CRM platforms, Content Delivery Systems, and Learning Management platforms.
After successfully launching illuminate last year, I am more confident than ever that my firm mission to solve the integration is now within reach. Illuminate allows customers to build and secure web-services within minutes. Using Illuminate, developers can build web-services using SQL , PLSQL or stored procedures as the Business Object.

I am most excited about the potential for Illuminate to support the emerging trends in education. New entrepreneurs are actively in the process of creating “uber for learning”, “facebook for learning”, “google for learning” and many other disruptive technologies that have the ability to completely transform the way we learn in the future.
My resolution for the year 2017 is to enable every educational institution with the power of Web Services – Kiran Kodithala, CEO, N2N Integration Inc.
Integration use-cases
2016 has been a great year, we have successfully demonstrated the following use-cases successfully
- The ability to expose student and faculty data to the best mobile platform on the marketplace.
- The ability to expose student data using web-services to a SaaS distance learning platform
- Support the integration of SIS data with a CRM platform built on Sales Force
- Support the integration of SIS data between campuses in a consortia environment

N2N’s 2017 resolution
During the year 2017, we will focus all our energies to enable every educational institution with the power of web-services. To this effect, we are committed to partnering with every educational software vendor, every educational institution, and every consortium that supports the mission of affordable and efficient administrative systems on campus.
Together we can ensure the era of enlightenment via simplified and secure data access. I strongly believe that this data access will enable innovation at each campus.
