Edumate Features Technical Specifications
As well as providing a suite of powerful features Edumate has also been designed to be a stable and scalable web architected solution. Being a truly n-tiered application Edumate can deliver the scalability needed by a single site campus up to a large group of schools.
Works with more browsers.
Edumate works with more browsers than any other web based application in its class. Currently Edumate supports Internet Explorer (8+), Safari, Firefox, and Chrome. As a result of this, less time needs to be spent on supporting client software - anyone with a web browser on their computer can use Edumate! Users can now use the browser that they are most comfortable with, which again lowers the total cost of supporting the school’s user base.
Able to grow with your needs.
Edumate is a true n-tiered application. This means that a single Edumate application and database can be deployed across any number of servers in your environment allowing for fail over redundancy, multi campus or multi site operations and server load sharing. All of this is achieved without the need for expensive 3rd party licensing costs or advanced networking.
Secure and stable operating environment.
Edumate is built on sound industry proven-technology. At its core is the industry leading operating system for web-based technologies, Linux SuSE by Novell. Adding to this solid base are the Apache Web Server and the PHP scripting language.
The October 2005 Web Survey by Netcraft shows Apache being used by 69.89% of the world's web sites. Don't have any experience with Linux, Apache or PHP? No problem, the Edumate3 server is provided as a "black box" and managed remotely by our expert team of system administrators. All security updates, patches and monitoring are taken care of for you.
The Edumate server will plug seamlessly into your existing environment, guaranteed.
Fast, powerful, database engine.
Edumate uses the advanced IBM DB2 database - a powerful SQL database sever that provides a complete set of enterprise level database features. DB2 database software offers industry leading performance, scale, and reliability.
