Managed Hosting: A Smart Choice for Educational Program Site

Academic Study Associates, New York, NY
a leader in summer educational programs for high school students

Challenges
With its impending website launch, Academic Study Associates (ASA) realized the need to significantly revamp its IT infrastructure and support strategy to:

(1) Better support ASA’s educational staff worldwide
(2) Handle a large volume of website traffic from students
(3) Modify a custom application written by Micro-Point to run on a Microsoft SQL Server.

Solution
Micro-Point initiated a plan to host the ASA data and applications at our cutting-edge IT center. Our tailored Managed Hosting strategy called for the deployment of:

- Microsoft IIS for Web services
- Microsoft SQL server for database management
- Terminal servers for remote access

After a smooth, seamless transition, the client enjoyed the high capacity, security and redundancy of their network and website that supported the client’s staff globally and accommodate the entire volume of students’ website hits with ease.
