October 18, 2007
Majority (> 50%) old workstations; 7,000 to 18,000…
Bandwidth : 54-200k, now 10 MB Internet: now in all classrooms, I-based
access to data; on-line information systems, i.e. access from home
District-wide software: email/Outlook, SPAM, Office; Pearson; ALS; United Streaming; Autodial absences, food lunch balances, emergency notices; Altiris –network-based management…
Printers-every school 45ppm; all lasers… Tech specialists, Zone Techs…

Multiple Directories• Multiple directories• No WS Management• Many passwords; SDcalls• Manual user provisioning
Single directory for Auth• One authentication directory
$1320/WS Cost $580/WS Cost $230/WS Cost
Automated provisioning• Meta directory• Single Sign-on• Auto password reset• Auto user provisioning
None• No WS life cycle strategy• Many hardware configs• Many software config• Many images
Standardization• 3 or 4 yr WS refresh• Few hardware configs• Few software configs• Minimal # of images
Stds Compliance• Compliance auditing • Compliance Enforcement• Automated SW
Distribution
Minimal WS Security• Anti-virus• Reactive security
Limited WS Security• PC firewall• Automated patching
Comprehensive WS Security• Anti Spyware• Network Access Control
Comprehensive PC Security = $160/WS Savings
Standardization & Standards Compliance = $220/WS Savings
Identity Management = $210/WS Savings
•Basic Level School Technology Standard•Review/discuss basic standards•Make recommendations on changes/additions•Discuss other items for inclusion into the basic standards

Basic Computer Standards – Time Basic Computer Standards – Time for a Change?for a Change?
Consider change to standard?We’ve been standardized on Dell and Apple for
seven yearsDell versus other Tier 1?Are we satisfied?Is it time for a change?
