关于客户
Cedars School of Excellence 是一所小型苏格兰预科学校,约有 120 名学生和 20 名教职员工。该学校因在全球率先推出基于 iPad 的 1:1 学习课程而闻名。学校的 IT 计划由 IT 和中学负责人 Fraser Speirs 领导。尽管规模较小,该学校已取得了重大的数字化成就,包括在 Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) 上运行其设备管理服务器,以及实施基于云的桌面即服务解决方案来访问旧版 Microsoft 软件。
挑战
Cedars School of Excellence 是一所苏格兰小型预科学校,拥有约 120 名学生和 20 名教职员工,因成为世界上第一所引入基于 iPad 的 1:1 学习课程而闻名。然而,由于某些关键应用程序与 iPad 不兼容,学校在管理复杂的 iPad 部署以及提供某些课程和测试方面面临挑战。该学校的 IT 负责人 Fraser Speirs 此前决定于 2013 年在 Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) 上运行学校的设备管理服务器 Jamf Pro。尽管这一决定有好处,但学校在提供某些服务方面仍然面临限制。由于某些应用程序与 iPad 不兼容,部分课程将被取消。
解决方案
为了克服课堂技术的限制,Fraser Speirs 转向 Amazon WorkSpaces,这是一种基于云的桌面即服务解决方案。该解决方案使访问证书级管理和 IT 课程所需的旧版 Microsoft 软件成为可能。它还为学生提供了访问 Windows 版本 Microsoft Office 中一系列新软件功能的机会,并使课程的 IT 要求可以由少量员工管理。此外,学校使用 Amazon EC2 来管理其复杂的 iPad 部署,使学生能够使用单个 EC2 实例有效地自我管理他们的 iPad。学校还使用该服务来运行新 Wi-Fi 网络的控制器软件。 Fraser 还实施了 Amazon CloudWatch,它会在每堂课开始时触发 AWS Lambda 脚本对 Amazon WorkSpaces 进行排队,从而节省宝贵的教学时间。

IoT platform Enables Safety Solutions for U.S. School Districts
Designed to alert drivers when schoolchildren are present, especially in low-visibility conditions, school-zone flasher signals are typically updated manually at each school. The switching is based on the school calendar and manually changed when an unexpected early dismissal occurs, as in the case of a weather-event altering the normal schedule. The process to reprogram the flashers requires a significant effort by school district personnel to implement due to the large number of warning flashers installed across an entire school district.

Revolutionizing Medical Training in India: GSL Smart Lab and the LAP Mentor
The GSL SMART Lab, a collective effort of the GSL College of Medicine and the GSL College of Nursing and Health Science, was facing a challenge in providing superior training to healthcare professionals. As clinical medicine was becoming more focused on patient safety and quality of care, the need for medical simulation to bridge the educational gap between the classroom and the clinical environment was becoming increasingly apparent. Dr. Sandeep Ganni, the director of the GSL SMART Lab, envisioned a world-class surgical and medical training center where physicians and healthcare professionals could learn skills through simulation training. He was looking for different simulators for different specialties to provide both basic and advanced simulation training. For laparoscopic surgery, he was interested in a high fidelity simulator that could provide basic surgical and suturing skills training for international accreditation as well as specific hands-on training in complex laparoscopic procedures for practicing physicians in India.

Implementing Robotic Surgery Training Simulator for Enhanced Surgical Proficiency
Fundacio Puigvert, a leading European medical center specializing in Urology, Nephrology, and Andrology, faced a significant challenge in training its surgical residents. The institution recognized the need for a more standardized and comprehensive training curriculum, particularly in the area of robotic surgery. The challenge was underscored by two independent studies showing that less than 5% of residents in Italian and German residency programs could perform major or complex procedures by the end of their residency. The institution sought to establish a virtual reality simulation lab that would include endourological, laparoscopic, and robotic platforms. However, they needed a simulator that could replicate both the hardware and software of the robotic Da Vinci console used in the operating room, without being connected to the actual physical console. They also required a system that could provide both basic and advanced simulation training, and a metrics system to assess the proficiency of the trainees before they performed surgical procedures in the operating theater.

Edinburgh Napier University streamlines long-distance learning with Cisco WebEX
• Geographically dispersed campus made in-person meetings costly and inconvenient.• Distance-learning programs in Malaysia, India, and China required dependable, user-friendly online tools to maximize interaction in collaborative workspaces.• Virtual learning environment required a separate sign-in process, resulting in a significant administrative burden for IT staff and limited adoption of collaboration technology.

8x increased productivity with VKS
Before VKS, a teacher would spend a lot of time showing a group of 22 students how to build a set of stairs within a semester of 120 hours. Along with not leaving the teacher much time to provide one-on-one support for each student to properly learn carpentry, it also left a considerable amount of room for error. Key information would be misinterpreted or lost as the class was taught in the typical show-and-tell way.

Scalable IoT Empowering GreenFlex's Sustainable Growth
GreenFlex, a company that supports sustainable development, decarbonization, and energy efficiency, faced several challenges in its quest to expand its business. The company needed to deploy a robust and sustainable IoT technology to support its growth. It was crucial for them to monitor and control devices at customer sites in a safe and reliable manner. They also needed to integrate devices across a range of communication protocols and gather and act on data to meet efficiency targets. GreenFlex had previously built IoT capabilities into its digital platform, GreenFlexIQ, to monitor and manage customer sites remotely. However, they soon realized that they needed a new platform to support their ambitions. They needed a platform that could scale to connect more devices for production management and make it easier for the operations team to manage devices in the field.
