On-Premise
The education hosting challenge
Why education teams need better hosting
Generic hosting was not built for education requirements.
Term-time traffic spikes
Enrolment and exam periods hammer your LMS. Shared hosting cannot absorb the load when it matters.
Small IT teams
Schools and universities run lean. Nobody has time to patch servers and renew certificates every week.
Student data protection
Student records demand encryption, isolation, and data residency, especially under GDPR.
