| Title | OpenMRS Architecture case study |
| Overview | In this activity students use OpenMRS Architecture as a case study to identify the architecture pattern used and study the components of web architecture. |
| Prerequisite Knowledge | Design and architecture |
| Learning Objectives |
|
Background
Open-MRS is an open source electronic medical record system (EMR) originally designed for developing countries. Go the open MRS website https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/Technical+Overview and http://write.flossmanuals.net/openmrs-developers-guide/architecture/ . The architectural design of the Open MRS system is described in these pages.
Directions
Study the architectural diagram and answer the following questions:
Part 1: General Architecture
- Identify the basic modules in the architecture. What are the basic components and how do they interact
- What architecture style is used in Open-MRS architecture? Justify your answer.
(Grading criteria: your answer should explain how the Open-MRS architecture satisfies the constraints and rules for the chosen architecture style)
Part 2: Server and client technologies
- What technologies are used on the client side?
- What technologies are used on the server-side?
- What is Spring? (use Google to answer. Include your reference)
- What is Hibernate? (use Google to answer. Include your reference)
- What language is used for server-side programming in OpenMRS?
Part 3: Design Principles
- OpenMRS architecture satisfies design principles such as modularity and information hiding. Explain how does the architecture satisfy these principles?
- Why does the architecture follow design principles ? (Find the answer in the reading)
Deliverable
- A report including answers
