The Humble Independent School District is named for a pioneering Texas settler, not for its approach to education. The fast-growing Humble Independent School District needed to improve network bandwidth and uptime, make data backup faster and more reliable, and reduce the time its IT staff spent on repairs and routine maintenance. Dell Services helped Humble ISD implement a highly robust, scalable server cluster, based on Dell PowerEdge servers. The cluster consolidates e-mail, office software and educational tools from 40 separate servers and offers dramatically faster access and simplified maintenance. The district turned its old data center into a mirrored disaster recovery site using Dell and EMC technology.
