Ellucian Banner Student Information Case Studies
Lightning-Fast Enrollment Portal Revamp
Client: Mid-size public university
Challenge: Legacy Ellucian Banner Student Information screens caused 70 % abandonment during peak enrollment.
Solution: Two Smartbrain.io Java architects split the monolith into Spring Boot micro-services, added Angular front-end hooks, and introduced Redis caching. CI/CD pipelines were set up in four days.
Result: 63 % faster page loads, 42 % drop in help-desk calls, and a 15 % rise in on-time tuition payments within one semester.
Banner Financial Aid Automation
Client: Private scholarship foundation
Challenge: Manual aid calculation inside Ellucian Banner Student Information delayed award letters by 6 weeks.
Solution: A dedicated Java team built rule-based engines with Drools, integrated via Banner APIs, and orchestrated nightly batch jobs on AWS Fargate.
Result: Processing window collapsed from 45 days to 72 hours, compliance errors fell by 88 %, freeing analysts for donor relations.
Cloud-Native Reporting for Board Metrics
Client: Multi-campus community college
Challenge: Board demanded real-time KPI dashboards sourced from Ellucian Banner Student Information but the on-prem database choked on ad-hoc queries.
Solution: Smartbrain.io exported data via Java CDC connectors into Snowflake, built RESTful reporting layer and React dashboards, all within eight weeks.
Result: Decision-makers access live metrics in under 3 seconds; infrastructure spend reduced by 27 % compared to previous BI stack.
