To power this platform, IIT Bombay utilized Open edX, a highly scalable, open-source course management system originally developed by edX (founded by MIT and Harvard). Open edX provides the underlying technology, hosting engine, and learning management tools that allow universities and institutions to create, deliver, and manage online courses at scale.
