Technology Services and Core Network $1,000,000 The district has purchased equipment to safeguard $1,000,000
Common Core student and business data at a disaster recovery site
located at the Orange County Department of Education
(OCDE) datacenter. In addition, a high speed, highly
redundant storage appliance was purchased in order to
host student applications centrally. This allowed for faster
application access and higher resiliency. In order to
provide a safe computing environment to all staff and
students without affecting the user experience, a network
access control (NAC) appliance was implemented. This
addition will support the simple on‐boarding of one‐to‐
one and Bring Your Own Device initiatives while keeping
the network safe. In order to safely provide increased
internet access speed, a high speed firewall and content
filter was a necessary upgrade to address one of the last
remaining congestion points in the network. To provide
redundant access to vital services such as email, Aeries,
and web applications, a hardware load balancer has been
implemented to provide highly available access. As an
added benefit, these systems receive a significant increase
in performance by at least doubling the number of servers
providing access.
