Higher education institutions are under constant pressure to support demands from administrators, faculty, staff, and students. Digital curricula, classroom collaboration, and context-aware services are moving to the cloud. Campuses are essentially small cities, and new Internet of Things (IoT) devices are flooding into labs, buildings, and facilities, forcing IT to find ways to secure IoT network communications. Students are using more devices in class, for remote learning, and in residence halls, and IT is being asked to support personalized learning for everyone.
Aruba’s Edge Services Platform provides always-on, secure connectivity with an architecture that is extensible across a broad range of IT, IoT, and operational technology (OT) applications. Built on a Zero Trust Security framework, the platform unifies wired, wireless, and WAN operations and security wherever users learn, work or roam. To improve operational efficiency, the Edge Services Platform uses AI-driven insights and automation to predict issues and optimize the network before users are impacted. The results empower faculty, staff, and students to create, innovate, and collaborate in ways never before possible, with unparalleled privacy and security.
