Computing
facility and Internet
The
components of IT infrastructure are made up of interdependent elements, and the
two core groups of components are hardware and software. Hardware uses
software—like an operating system—to work. And likewise, an operating system manages
system resources and hardware. Operating systems also make connections between
software applications and physical resources using networking components.
Hardware components include Desktop computers, Servers, Data centers, Hubs,
Routers, Switches, Facilities.
A
computer center as centralised facility for all students of 150 computers, UPS
backup support, CCTV survillance with full networking approx cost 1.99 Cr is
sanctioned and will be setup very shortly.
Institute
has 227 computers on the campus. All computers have updated windows licensed copies
of operating systems. In addition to regular use, computers used in
laboratories. Sufficient number of computers are allocated to all departments
with necessary software and hardware configuration. Every department has 1
computer lab and computer science and engineering department have 6 computer
labs.
The speed
of data can also be manually adjusted as per requirement of a specific
department for bifurcation of bandwidth and management.Manageable switches are
installed at prominent places.
Software
components can include Operating systems, Web servers. Networks are comprised
of switches, routers, hubs and servers. All computers are well maintained and
LAN connected through a dedicated leased line. Wi-Fi facility is also available
at college as well as hostel premises for all. Wi-Fi facility is provided
to all departments by installing sufficient number of access points. All
computers are connected to a Lease line internet connection having speed
(250 MBPS) from Powergrid and in addition to 10 MBPS leased line from BSNL for
standby. Switches connect network devices on local area networks (LAN) like
routers, servers and other switches. Routers allow devices on different LANs to
communicate and move packets between networks. Hubs connect multiple networking
devices to act as a single component. Server core hardware component needed for
IT infrastructure is a server. These are essentially computers that allow
multiple users to access and share resources. A central server room is
maintained to look after connectivity of all computers and cyber security
related issues.
Licensed
firewall in all the systems help to secure computers from any malware and
restrict access to unwanted sites to students.
Sufficient
number of Surveillance cameras throughout the campus help to maintain a safe
and secure atmosphere in campus.
Biometric
system is used to record the daily attendance of all the staff members and
students staying in hostel.
