Technology Tracks
 

Within each track you will have the flexibility to choose the stream most appropriate to you. Each track features a Leadership Session and Breakout Presentation or Product Demonstration.

Technology Track Topics include:

Zero Touch Deployments

How automated is your deployment operation? The single largest cost your school faces in managing hundreds of desktops and notebooks is the human resources it requires to deploy, support, manage and maintain an efficient infrastructure.

Computer configurations require that your IT Professionals have the skills, knowledge and confidence when working with mobile devices, desktop computers or notebooks. Manual administration takes time, money and staff, so minimizing the challenge is always a top priority. A successful deployment can lead to higher usage and productivity. It can also result in a lower cost infrastructure and improved return on investment.

Learn how a proactive approach to managing application deployment with a Zero Touch solution, can automate the deployment process, reducing cost and errors at your school.

Security threats, protection and future trends

The challenge of securing your network has never been more daunting.  Learn how a broad range of services, software products and appliances can protect the overall security of your network and data, while supporting regulatory compliance and other initiatives for which information integrity is essential.

Virtualisation and Convergence

Organisation growth demands IT infrastructure growth. Servers are often added to support new applications, which in turn can lead to many under-utilised servers, higher network management costs and decreased agility and reliability.

Virtualisation reduces server proliferation, simplifies server management and significantly improves server utilisation, network agility and reliability. It does this by consolidating multiple applications onto fewer enterprise-level servers.

Your server numbers will also be dramatically reduced with consolidation and virtualisation.

Learn how you can implement virtualisation into your environment to save money on your IT infrastructure.


The convergence of voice and data transmitted over a single IP network offers many opportunities to streamline business processes, enhance employee productivity and reduce costs.

This track will feature a cost effective demonstration on how you can educe or even eliminate charges for telephony.

Network Monitoring and Management

Today’s IT Managers need to spend less time managing crisis and more time delivering new services.

Learn how to deliver effective management processes to improve the efficiency of your IT department and help reduce the complexity associated with managing your IT infrastructure and lower the cost of operations.

In this track you will also learn how you can further analyse network performance, clearly report on activity and continuously monitor and prioritise traffic.

Featured Technologies

New technologies enter the market every day, how do IT Managers determine which products to integrate into the school to build effectiveness in learning?

Learn from real examples from a leading school and see demonstrations of a range of solutions that will transform ICT in education.

Content regulation

Content of every possible variety can be found on the Internet. How do you protect students, while allowing the emerging medium to grow within your school? Does your school have a strategy to regulate communication content going in and out of the network?

There are also many legal issues surrounding emerging data and communication technologies such as IM, P2P and mobility.

This track will help better inform you about the legal issues surrounding the Internet, Content Filtering and how to protect your school against the risk of financial loss, legal liability and data leakage.
