Why a Managed Cloud Infrastructure Matters to K-12
Remote online learning have been eye-opening. District IT administrators moved at lighting speed to ensure schools had scalable, compliant cloud environments for K-12 and higher education institutions.
With hybrid learning models rapidly becoming the new normal, IT leaders and business managers are purchasing more cloud-based IaaS solutions because of the significant advantages it offers to administrators, faculty and students. On-demand services give schools a cost-efficient model that optimizes investment and performance while supporting the evolving demand for distance education technology.
