Caching for education

Your teachers want to show downloaded video and web content to their classes but slow loading times are leaving the teacher frustrated, the children bored and wasting teaching time.

So what are your options? You could increase your bandwidth.  No.  You’ve looked at the costs and there isn’t the budget for it.

You could limit how much time teachers and students spend on the web but you know that will quickly lead to frustration and that it’s not a long-term solution.

You need a way to use your existing bandwidth more effectively and that’s where we can help.  With an ApplianSys CACHEBOX, the benefits are immediately noticeable:

  • CACHEBOX reduces the amount of internet bandwidth you use by caching, and then serving, content locally over your LAN. You can even pre-load the appliance with content so that it’s ready for teachers before the start of class.
  • Teachers and students notice a faster service because the files have already been downloaded.  This increases their satisfaction in the service you provide.
  • User requests can be logged, so you can enforce and improve your student protection policies.
  • Clustering CACHEBOXs together on the network lets you share a heavy workload between devices. This is especially useful if you’re operating across multiple campuses or working with other schools in your area.

 

The centrally managed caches filter content requested by schools in the region
