For didaris, think modular developed a scalable video conferencing solution with a custom frontend, automated recording transfer, GDPR-compliant deletion processes, and comprehensive monitoring. In April 2025 alone, up to 200 simultaneous meetings were held, with an average of 30 participants per meeting.

Our scope of work
  Hosting, Implementation and Integration with BigBlueButton (BBB) API
  Monitoring of video conferences using BBB
  Implementation of demand-driven, automated deletion processes


Tailored platform integration – with a clear focus on data protection and scalability.

 

didaris offers flexible, location-independent online courses for adult education. The focus is on the simple and secure organisation of online meetings with high user activity. For more than a year now, think modular – digital solutions has been supporting the technical development and operation of the video conferencing system – with a focus on scalability, data protection, and automation.

Instead of relying on standard solutions, a custom integration into the existing didaris frontend was developed using the established BBB API, tailored precisely to didaris' specific requirements. This enables maximum control over design, functionality, and integrations – optimised for high usage loads and various end devices.

 

Sustainable and GDPR-compliant system management – enabled by automated processes and smart data handling.

A key feature of the solution is the automatic transfer of meeting recordings. As soon as a video meeting ends, the corresponding file is processed in the background, securely encrypted, and made available to authorised users via the platform – quickly, securely, and without manual intervention.

Customised, demand-driven deletion processes were also implemented, working in full compliance with data protection regulations. Depending on configuration and usage context, meetings and recordings are automatically deleted or archived after defined retention periods – fully transparent and audit-proof.

An extensive monitoring system provides operators and administrators with real-time insights into system status, usage levels, error messages, and performance. The collected data not only supports reliable daily operation but also informs strategic development.

 

The result: a video conferencing platform that sets new standards.

 

The specific requirements of didaris played a key role in advancing think modular’s video conferencing solutions. Many features and automation processes that are now considered standard were first developed as part of this project – from intelligent resource distribution to the automated provision of meeting statistics.The platform operates reliably, with excellent performance, fully compliant with GDPR – even under high concurrent usage with up to 200 simultaneous meetings.


Together with didaris, a video conferencing solution was created that goes far beyond standard tools – technically flexible, intelligently automated, and built for long-term use. think modular remains a trusted long-term development and operational partner.

 

Since early 2024, didaris has been using think modular’s BigBlueButton hosting services. Our experience has been consistently positive. For us, think modular is an outstanding, reliable partner.

The think modular team combines extensive technical expertise with a highly solution-oriented approach. They understood our specific requirements and delivered a tailored configuration that perfectly meets our needs.

We especially appreciate their ongoing commitment to improving the IT infrastructure. Over time, we have seen how think modular has continuously perfected their load balancing. Their servers are extremely stable and easily handle large numbers of simultaneous conferences.

What truly sets them apart from other IT providers is the reliable, personal communication. The support team responds quickly – even on weekends. It's clear that think modular genuinely cares about our success. That’s why we plan to expand our collaboration with them in the future.
