This is most likely marketing for Abstract Technology but I found some technical bits of interest and also was faced with the wider question: why couldn't this have been done with Moodle. Basically, the article describes a migration from Moodle to a fully managed instance of Open EdX in order to offer courses for doctors in bandwidth limited locations such as Uganda for an NGO - University College for Missionary Doctors and Students (CUAMM). . They do try to dazzle in the middle: "CUAMM's domain- training.doctorswithafrica.org - was configured with custom DNS routing, SMTP integration via Google for learner communications, and a CI/CD deployment pipeline managed through GitLab. The entire infrastructure - from Terraform provisioning to Ansible configuration - runs under our managed hosting model." But this - and everything else they mention - could also have been done with Moodle. Why OpenEdX? Is it that MIT brand?
