I've always thought of ed-Fi as interesting but niche. Ed-Fi has always been an open "set of rules for the collection, management, and organization of educational data." This announcement opens the software associated with the rules, including an Operational Data Store (ODS) that "allows you to pull information from multiple systems into a database" and an API that supports querying that database. There are also integrated development environments (IDE) and a dashboard. Troy Wheeler writes, "We know that the world is changing right now, and the way we deliver the tools of education will look vastly different in the months and years to come. We also know there has never been a better moment to move forward."
