BlueAlly Delivers a Technology Upgrade to Strengthen Network Reliability for a Federal Agency
As a large U.S. federal training agency began decommissioning its data center, it faced a critical need to upgrade core IT infrastructure at its data center and across its training centers nationwide. Essential network components, including routers, switches, and video equipment, were reaching end-of-life, causing network instability and operational challenges. The agency required a full technology refresh to prevent network failures and support ongoing operations.
The Client
A large U.S. federal training agency with 125 training centers nationwide, serving over 60,000 students.
