On-premises or Cloud

Whether you're planning to host an on-premises physcial server or transition to a cloud-based solution from Microsoft or Google, we will assist your school to seamlessly migrate to an Agile ICT network.

On-Premises Server:
This traditional method means schools or organisations keep their own physical servers on site. It gives you full control over your data security, customisation, and how your infrastructure is set up. For educational institutions, using on-premises hosting can be a great way to give students hands-on experience and keep sensitive information safely within the school’s boundaries.

Microsoft Cloud:
Microsoft Azure is a flexible cloud platform that supports all kinds of apps and services. It allows students and teachers to build, launch, and manage applications easily, with confidence that everything is reliable and scalable. Using Microsoft Azure helps students get familiar with professional-grade tools, giving them a head start in the digital world of work.

Google Cloud:
Google Workspace for Education focuses on simplicity, teamwork, and powerful data tools. Its seamless integration with Google’s popular productivity apps creates an easy-to-use environment for creative projects and research. Using Google Workspace for Education helps students learn about cloud computing, data analysis, and machine learning in a friendly and accessible way.

By implementing best practice principles throughout the school and by adhering to the DfE Digital and Technology Standards in Schools, Agile ICT delivers a robust and reliable infrasturcture to optimise the learning environment for both pupils and staff.
