Real Time Cloud Computing Services In Computer Classroom Solution

Background

With the rapid development of information technology, need to transform education information technology in the primary and secondary school, school curriculums based on computer and network technology is rising, need more practice, meanwhile the students have urgent demands for rich and personalized desktop access tools, the IT department’s pressure increasing from lower costs, improve efficiency, strengthen the safety and control, the old computer classroom infrastructure is unable to meet the increasingly and complex teaching environment, how to make use of new information technology to construct advance technology for easily maintain and manage, and can meet the demand of separated teaching environment, high resources utilization rate, economic, security and reliable computer classroom has become the school information construction needs.

Requirements

The present computer teaching developed to information technology and teaching application fusion gradually, and push forward information construction in the primary and secondary school, the traditional computer classroom still faces the following problems:

1. Teaching software updates or operating system upgrade, caused computer upgrading frequently.
2. Numerous heterogeneous computers, it is difficult to install operating system and software in all.
3. Fat computer system, poor teachers and students using experience, affect the teaching result
4. Easily damage computer systems, unable to avoid the risk.
5. Low resource utilization for fat computer classroom, operation cost is expensive.

Construction target

The objective of this program is to use the latest cloud computing virtualization technology to build E-VDI classrooms for schools, use education cloud desktop solutions to take place of traditional fat PC, make full use of host compute, storage space for centralized management and maintenance, users use free-maintenance, lower power consumption terminals to access cloud desktop from host, which improves machine experience for the teachers and students in class. Through the E-VDI classroom centralized management platform to unify manage all cloud hosting, virtual desktops, users, terminals. Use OS-easy media to broadcast teacher desktop screen to all students, which significantly reducing operation difficulty, reduce TCO, energy saving, promotes the school information technology development, create green E-VDI classroom for all students.

Solution composition

OS-easy E-VDI is developed by OS-easy Group Holding Ltd., combines with more than ten years education computer classrooms experience.

OS-easy E-VDI products mainly include: OS-easy E-VDI host (OS-easy E-VDI management component),

OS-easy media screen broadcasting components, thin client.

Centralized management——anywhere, anytime, any device

WEB-based graphical centralized management platform, users can access management platform on any devices to perform physical server management like creating, deleting, and modifying virtual machines, installing virtual machine system and software; uniformly manage all users' desktop behaviors. You can deploy or manage all computer desktops in your office click.

“Link clone"-quickly deploy desktops to virtual machines in batch

OS-easy E-VDI provides virtual machine “Link clone” function. The administrator only needs to create a template, then clone virtual machines with same configuration in batch based on the template, to achieve quickly distributing virtual machines to terminals by user name or terminal name.

"Dual desktop mode" suits for computer teaching, and office

In "Teaching Desktop", the virtual machine can be restored as policy defined; it is suitable for class teaching, training where needs quantity stable desktops. it supports to modify virtual machines IP, PC name and user name in batch.

In "Personal Desktop", each users have one account, they can login their desktop by this account to achieve all working data will be saved;

"Cloud update" -Easily update system patches and software for all virtual machines

Where there is system patch or software needs to update, administrators do not need to for computer operations, just open management console anywhere, click "one-click update" button for template, then all desktops based on this template will be updated in batch.

Device Management——USB control and terminal management

In cloud desktop management platform, not only you can manage desktop USB permissions, but also manage terminal configuration including PC name, IP modification, and remote start/shutdown.

Start cloud teaching

E-VDI offers broadcasting teaching functions, all the E-VDI teaching functions are designed for convenient teaching, completely design according to class requirements, and provides computer teaching broadcasted from teacher desktop to student desktops.

Broadcast teaching: fast, powerful

Adopt unique CPU energy saving technology for streaming video broadcasting, it supports a variety of video and audio files formats. Tutor can use half screen broadcasting, half screen learning, learn and play at the same time. Meanwhile, it can work with whiteboard to emphasize and annotate the teaching difficulties.

Group discussion: Establish interactive and discussion platform

In the group discussion platform, teachers and students can discuss through voice, text, and graphics to arouse the enthusiasm of students.

Black screen: lock screen for attentive learning

When need to listen to the teacher, teacher can remote black screen and lock computers, and prompt information, which ma
