Enterprise learning organizations are increasingly looking to harness the power of learning data to improve training, performance, and decision making. But with the vast amounts of learning activity data being generated across various platforms and systems, managing and analyzing that data can quickly become overwhelming. This is where SQL LRS comes in.

XR is a perfect use case for xAPI. Because most events that occur within an XR learning experience are activity-based, it’s easy to instrument an XR system to produce activity data aligned with xAPI. And because so much of the interesting information about learning that occurs in XR is behavioral and experiential, xAPI’s semantic data model — purpose-built for activities that occur during learning — is both a clear fit and a natural value-add.

As an Apache 2.0 open source Learning Record Store built on SQL, our LRS provides significant advantages in terms of deployment, integration, and data querying capabilities.

xAPI implementation has become even easier for U.S. Federal Government stakeholders. A Certification to Field (CtF) has been granted for SQL LRS on USAF’s Platform One.

We asked, and this is what you had to say. So without further ado, here are the top five things we learned from all of you about SQL LRS.
