Education

Education is increasingly going online. From recruiting, and conducting classes, to providing students with various services or managing staff and internal resources, educational institutions are turning to Windows applications and the web to streamline processes and cut costs. More and more schools are implementing e-learning programs to expand the reach of their classrooms to students across campus and around the globe.

This online movement involves many demanding requirements that extend beyond IT efficiency and cost reductions. These demands include privacy of information, a spike in usage of application servers for the few days centered around class registration periods, and a server infrastructure that can adapt as more services (for example, CPU-intensive e-learning programs) become available online.
