Targeted Learning through Next-Gen Technologies
Increased focus on STEM education has led to the emergence of new ways to make learning more targeted and specialized. Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, and Makerspace are technologies that give students a deeper, more immersive educational experience by tapping into their cognitive abilities. As technology is brought closer to users, focus shifts to the increasing criticality of network closets. These smaller locations are now receiving, processing, and analyzing more data than ever before. By focusing on these locations aside from the core data center, you are able to focus on efficiency and availability. Vertiv's integrated solutions can support new technologies and handle increasing amounts of big data.

Data Protection and Security
Schools are now collecting more data about their students to track their performance and personal development. The increased use of data leads to higher risk in protection and sovereignty. IT Managers must ensure that sensitive student data and information are protected against cyber attacks and similar threats. Schools must protect their assets in their entirety, from hardware to software. On a data center level, assets must be protected through centralized monitoring for insight, security, and ease of management.
