IT Systems were located in the basements of the school buildings. SISAB management required a secure, reliable solution that could provide school administrators with more uptime certainty.
Modern Education needs Cutting-Edge IT Infrastructure
In modern school systems, teachers rely on web-based tools and connectivity to educate the leaders of Tomorrow. SISAB (Skolfastigheter I Stockholm AB) owns and manages most of Stockholm’s 2500 school buildings that host about 200,000 children daily. Like other modern school systems, the quality of its education demands the resiliency of edge computing.
Micro data centre with Lithium-ion power protection delivered a standardized, integrated solution with long life (8-10 years), low maintenance requirements, and remote capabilities.
SISAB now has one centralized, locked room of IT equipment which only authorized personnel can access, and administrators can now anticipate reduced service costs as a result of the lithium-ion batteries’ longer lifecycle.
“In order to secure stable access to the internet and functioning communication — also in case of disruptions to the information systems — SISAB decided to modernize the IT equipment and systems in their edge computing facilities to a standardized, secure, and reliable solution.”

Standardization
Identical rack, UPS, and PDU equipment at each site make it simple to maintain and order parts.
Remote monitoring
Intelligent PDUs allow for remote reboot of systems which saves hours of travel time between sites.
Enhanced Security
IT and networking systems are in one secure rack in a locked room; only authorized staff has access.
