Solution
The Nopio team has been tasked with building the tools up to the specification. Using C# .Net MVC, MsSQL, BackboneJS, Solr search and Amazon AWS, we created a system that fulfills all the requirements of The Alliance that is:
- Handles student’s registration, uploads individual work and portfolios, and processes payments for each application
 - Manages staff users, judges, teachers, students, uploaded works, awards, and event RSVPs
 - Provides an easy to use review system and judge tools to optimize the judging process
 - Creates a Digital Archive system to store the historical works
 - Designs and creates an infrastructure that is flexible enough to handle predictable traffic spikes
