Case Study: Cloud-Based Integrated Development Environment (CS Lab)

Problem Definition

Students and teachers in our partner schools faced significant challenges when it came to saving, running, and debugging their coding projects. Attempts to set up a functional coding environment within the school computer labs were largely unsuccessful due to the complex setup process and the insufficient specifications of the available computers. Additionally, students were often unable to access the same computer for subsequent sessions, leading to the loss of their projects, and causing frustration for both teachers and students. These issues became a major bottleneck for effectively teaching and learning coding, hindering the ability to complete and practice programming projects efficiently.

Solution Offered by Cyber Square

Cyber Square addressed these challenges by introducing Cyber Square Lab—a cloud-based IDE integrated with our web-based Learning Management System (LMS). This platform allows students and teachers to save, execute, and debug their coding projects directly in a web browser, eliminating the need for local machine setups. With Cyber Square Lab, users can seamlessly work on their projects from any computer, without the worry of losing progress. We further enhanced CS Lab to support a wide range of coding activities, including data science projects and third-party package integrations. Additionally, AI-powered features were incorporated to revolutionize how teachers and students engage with coding:

globeAI-assisted project evaluation: Teachers can quickly assess student projects with AI-generated feedback.

militaryAI-generated code: Teachers can leverage AI to generate code for various tasks.

militaryAI chatbot: An interactive assistant where teachers can resolve technical queries, debug code, and seek assistance on projects.

militaryAI-generated coding questions: Teachers can create coding exercises with the help of AI.

military AI code complexity analysis: The AI analyzes code for time and space complexity, offering detailed feedback. Technology Behind CS Lab

The Cyber Square Lab was developed by Cyber Square's core engineering team and is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS), ensuring scalability, security, and high performance. The architecture leverages the following AWS services:

globeAWS S3 and CloudFront for storing and delivering content

military AWS ECS (Elastic Container Service) and ECR (Elastic Container Registry) for running isolated Docker containers in which the coding environment is hosted.

militaryAWS EC2 powers a proxy server to manage user access to coding environments.

military AWS Fargate automatically spins up containers for individual users, providing each student or teacher with an isolated, high-performance environment.

military By utilizing AWS’s robust cloud infrastructure, Cyber Square Lab delivers a reliable, high-performance solution that empowers educators and students to thrive in their coding projects.

Case Study: Habitat Schools' Guinness World Record Powered by Cyber Square's Technology

Problem Statement

Habitat Schools in the UAE sought to leverage technology to foster a culture of innovation and creativity among their students. The school's goal was to facilitate a large-scale, online coding event where students could showcase their website development skills.
