In the era of digital revolution, advanced IT Infrastructure is a need of time for every academic institution. In view of this, institute has provided state of the art and well maintained IT Infrastructure to students and faculty members. This includes high-speed servers with large storage & processing power. Following is a brief description about the services that have been hosted on the servers.

The entire campus has been Wi-Fi enabled to provide mobility to the users in accessing various services available on institute’s network. This Wi-Fi network allows faculty, staff and students to log on to the Internet at any point of time. This wireless layer is placed on top of highly dense network with high level of security using username password based authentication.

S.P.I.T. has setup ownCloud, a file and document sharing utility similar to the popular Dropbox, for use by the S.P.I.T. staff. The utility supports storing and sharing of files, documents, contacts, calendar, tasks etc. It also supports version control and syncing with Windows/Linux/Mac desktops and Android and iOS based devices.

S.P.I.T has setup it’s own internal NTP server to keep it’s network devices & servers with the standard date & time. This timeserver also gets synchronized with external regional timeservers with time drift less than a few milliseconds.

The Institute’s network is linked to the Internet via a set of dedicated leased lines enabling round-the-clock Internet connectivity on the campus. The Internet leased lines are availed from different service providers so that the provision of redundant ISPs is there in order to have seamless connectivity across the campus. All the Internet Service Providers (ISPs) from whom the Institute has procured Internet bandwidth have installed fibre optics link from the campus to their hub. This ensures very high quality of bandwidth to the Internet.
