== Technical Overview ==
Canvas is currently hosted in Azure as a prebuilt Bitnami container. It connects back to the space via a site-to-site VPN for authentication.
=== Azure Deployment ===
Deployment uses the Bitnami Canvas LMS stack - https://bitnami.com/stack/canvaslms
Canvas currently runs in the <code>bitnami-canvaslms-534e-rgroup</code> resource group on Azure
The following components drive Canvas:

=== Azure VPN ===
The Azure VPN is used to facilitate LDAP authentication against [[Active_Directory]].
== Authentication ==
Canvas uses LDAP to authenticate against onsite [[Active Directory]]. Canvas user information is populated by a PowerShell script that runs on [[DC1|Active_Directory]] every 15 minutes as a Windows Scheduled Task. (Script should really be hosted on the PS1 github)
