NDG has formed a partnership with the EMC Academic Alliance to enable NETLAB+ support of the EMC Information Storage and Management (ISM) course and the EMC Cloud Infrastructure and Services (CIS) course. The use of NETLAB+ provides an enormous opportunity for educational organizations seeking a scalable, cost effective solution to offer access to the technology required in order to introduce students to storage area networking and cloud computing technologies and equip them with a valuable platform to learn basic concepts.
