NetBotz Remote Environmental Monitoring Solutions for Education


NetBotz Solutions for Education:
Technology is changing the face of education. Traditional teaching methods are being transformed by software and hardware, students are using the latest technology to produce schoolwork, and they are leveraging the Internet to conduct exhaustive research projects and to complete courses online. With that being said, IT professionals within the education sector, have limited time, resources and budgets, yet are still faced with keeping critical IT equipment and networks operational 24/7. As technology becomes the backbone of education, it also represents serious challenges for educational institutions across the globe.

Environmental and Security Challenges:
In addition to having time, resource and budget limitations; IT professionals must also contend with managing highly distributed networks and the problems associated with aging building structures, faulty heating and air conditioning equipment, outdated telecommunications equipment, and IT equipment being housed in less than optimal environments. Security is also paramount and with students, instructors, maintenance personnel and others having easy access to unsupervised computer labs, equipment rooms, etc.; keeping IT equipment secure is a huge task. When you combine all of these issues with inconsistent physical environmental conditions (i.e. power consumption, temperature, humidity, airflow, etc.) maintaining network availability and keeping IT equipment up and running 24/7 can be next to impossible.
