LMS Solution by ISW is Cloud Native, Private and Secure

The LMS Solution by ISW is a SaaS offering provisioned on a dedicated private cloud instance which provides key benefits over a public cloud approach. Here are some advantages:

  • Improved security and control over infrastructure: With a dedicated private cloud instance, organisations have enhanced control and visibility over their infrastructure. They can implement stringent security measures tailored to their specific needs and compliance requirements. This approach reduces the risk of unauthorised access and data breaches compared to a public cloud environment shared with other organisations.

  • Greater control over data governance and data locality: Private cloud instances allow organisations to maintain full control over their data governance practices. They can define and enforce data protection policies, access controls, and encryption methods according to their regulatory and internal compliance requirements. Data locality, the physical location of data storage, can also be managed more effectively, ensuring compliance with local data protection regulations.

  • Lower latency: By leveraging a dedicated private cloud instance, organisations can achieve lower latency for their lessons management solution. Since the infrastructure is dedicated solely to their use, there is less network congestion and improved performance. This is especially important for real-time or time-sensitive operations, where low latency is crucial for efficient data processing and decision-making.

  • Customisation and scalability: A dedicated private cloud instance offers more flexibility for customisation and scalability compared to a public cloud environment. Organisations can tailor the solution to their specific requirements and integrate it with their existing systems and workflows. They can also scale the infrastructure based on their needs without relying on shared resources, ensuring consistent performance during peak usage periods.

  • Compliance and regulatory alignment: Certain industries, such as the healthcare and  government sectors, have strict regulatory requirements for data handling and storage. With a dedicated private cloud instance, organisations can align their lessons management solution with these regulations more easily. They can implement industry-specific compliance measures and demonstrate adherence to auditors or regulatory bodies.
