Assessing infrastructure needs

When assessing a school district's computing hardware infrastructure needs in preparation for the installation of a PowerSchool SMS system, we recommend that, in addition to the core system requirements [>>], the implementation team consider:

= The district's future growth. As a district grows or extends its PowerSchool SMS system to more schools or personnel, additional servers and supporting infrastructure might be needed.
= Network performance. We recommend conducting a detailed network analysis [>>].
