The government of Rajasthan, India sought to provide computer education to the students in its state-run schools, but hardware costs, maintenance and power shortage were major roadblocks. NComputing’s vSpace desktop virtualization solution helped address these requirements in the most economical and effective manner.

Located in Patna, Bihar, the Centre of Excellence (CoE) is a public-private partnership initiative intended to support the training and capacity building needs of the state’s youth. Because the first two groups of Bihar government officials were ready to undergo training, CoE sought a quick-to-deploy computing solution that was both affordable and energy-efficient, and required less space. The effort led to the establishment of the region’s most eco-friendly training facility.

The ‘ICT in Education’ Project

Haryana, a state located in northern India, comprises 21 districts. The state’s “ICT in Education” project – part of the government’s mission of transforming Haryana into an IT-driven economy – aims to introduce every student to computing to empower them with the skills to thrive in the modern world.

Computer skills are becoming as important as math, language and science education, and governments around the world are looking for the most efficient ways to provide computing access for their students.
