Challenges for CIOs and university and college IT organizations have become increasingly complex, between an explosion in the volume of online instructional course content, an increase in research activities, and ever-growing network bandwidth demands to access important academic and administrative applications.
To address these growing demands, modern high-performance software-defined networking (SDN) is an important foundation – SDN can address the ever-expanding number of connected devices, support advanced research projects and address wide-area networking demands from multiple campus locations.
Still, educational institutions are often encumbered with legacy networks that are difficult to configure, manage and secure. Software-defined networks using virtualization are central to escaping the legacy networking constraints of the past.
Dell Technologies next generation network fabric solution is designed with campuses in mind. Our Smart Switch solutions with Dell EMC SmartFabric Director greatly simplify network configuration, improve service velocity and elevate network security practices.
