In today’s “iEverything” world, powerful applications can be delivered to almost any device, anywhere, at any time, and we can take advantage of the tremendous computing power that is available in consumer devices, such as smartphones and tablets. These devices can be issued by the school or district or brought from home by teachers, students and parents, but almost every IT department is experiencing the effects of unprecedented smart device adoption in their school or district.
Unfortunately, today's de facto controller-based architecture is based on an 8 year-old design that simply isn't up to the challenge of the “iEverything” explosion. Integrating this new world of mobile, virtual computing begins with selecting the right wireless access infrastructure. Devin Akin, Aerohive’s Chief Wi-Fi Architect, will discuss how IT departments can prepare their schools and districts for the wireless transformation with the right Wi-Fi architecture.
