Case Study: International School System achieves reliable, scalable 24/7 connectivity and automatic failover with FatPipe Networks SD-WAN

An International School System Uses FatPipe to Create a Reliable and Flexible Connection for its Students

International School System, which covers over 500 schools and thousands of students with a 7 Gig WAN and individual school links from 100 Mbps to 1 Gbps, needed a more reliable, efficient way to use existing lines and cope with evening and daytime surges in demand. FatPipe Networks was selected to address these challenges using its FatPipe SD-WAN networking appliance to aggregate and better manage the disparate connections.

FatPipe Networks implemented an SD-WAN solution that aggregates the 7 x 1 Gbps fiber links, provides load balancing and automatic failover, and creates high WAN redundancy. As a result, the school system gained greater availability for 24/7 student and staff access, eliminated expensive downtime during online exams and remote file access, and can scale easily by adding more connections — freeing IT to focus on strategic initiatives.
