Blended Infrastructures

What is a blended infrastructure?

A blended infrastructure applies the best of all IT solutions available and typically delivers them on a virtualised platform.  It blends internal support with external support to provide the best of both worlds.


Why try other platforms?

If you limit yourself to one platform you will miss the many advantages available with other platforms.  By blending your use of different platforms (eg. web-based, virtualised infrastructures, Microsoft servers, Apple desktops, Google Apps, Linux servers etc...) you can leverage the very best collection of services for your school.

 

Existing infrastructure

A blended approach always takes into account your existing setup and blends the new services into your own infrastructure.

 

Blending your approach also helps remove cost barriers by providing free alternatives
