    file-based data is increasing.</p>
    
    <p> </p>
    
    <p>You will learn how Dell EMC's Isilon One FS: </p>
    
    <p> </p>
    
    <p>•            
    Utilizes intelligent software to scale data across vast quantities of commodity
    hardware, thus enabling explosive growth in performance and capacity</p>
    
    <p>•            
    Provides a unifying clustered file system with built-in scalable data
    protection, and obviating the need for volume management</p>
    
    <p> </p>
    
    <p>We look forward to joining you on the webinar!</p>

    schools don't think they can afford the one network security item they need to
    open access to students, special guests or faculty to trusted resources. 
    Or, they think they have to deploy a solution from their dominant wired or
    wireless provider.  We can show you a MEEC-available solution for schools
    ranging from 150 to 300,000 students that is a perfect solution for
    Chromebooks, low budgets and little or no security expertise.  45 minutes
    includes a live on-boarding demonstration.</span></p>
