Case Study: RESTENA achieves flexible, high-performance cloud-based teaching with CloudSigma

What specific features are required by teachers looking for cloud services in education

RESTENA, the National Research and Education Network in Luxembourg, needed a better way to support a post-secondary Windows Server administration course at Lycée des Arts et Métiers. Their traditional on-premises lab setup was slow, inflexible, and tied students to specific classroom machines, making it difficult to handle resource-intensive tasks and limiting access outside school hours.

CloudSigma provided the cloud platform used to run the course’s virtual machines, with strong ACL-based delegation, VM cloning, reliable performance, and flexible billing controls. RESTENA and the teacher could assign resources to students without exposing billing complexity, and students gained faster, more reliable access from any location. The result was smoother delivery, little to no timeloss during migration, and students finishing assignments earlier than in previous years.
