The Challenge
Full Sail University, a leading institution in multimedia and entertainment education, faced the challenge of providing its students with hands-on experience in audio, video, and music technology. The goal was to prepare students for successful careers in the digital media and entertainment industry. The university needed to maintain state-of-the-art technology for audio and video editing, live sound, and music notation. The challenge was to ensure that the technology used in the university's labs and studios mirrored the production and recording environments in the music, film, gaming, and television industries. Furthermore, the university aimed to provide each incoming student with a 'Launch Box' containing all the necessary hardware and software for their specific degree program.
About The Customer
Full Sail University is a renowned institution that has been preparing students for successful multimedia and entertainment careers for nearly 40 years. The university's unique curriculum combines creative, project-based work and real-world digital media experience with the technology students will work with in their professional careers. The Full Sail campus in Winter Park, Florida features over 110 labs, recording studios and sound stages, over 60 classrooms, and boasts a world-class entertainment venue, Full Sail Live. The university's focus is on emerging technology and entertainment, with all classes and programs designed to set students on the best path to achieve their professional goals and dreams. Each month, students begin degree programs at Full Sail, with the university's structure allowing students to earn their undergraduate degree in 2.5 years and their graduate degree in 12 months.
The Solution
To address these challenges, Full Sail University implemented the Avid Media Campus program. This program ensured that the university maintained the most up-to-date technology for audio and video editing, music notation, shared storage, services, and the Avid Learning Partner curriculum. The university began replacing older control systems in its recording suites with Avid S6, upgrading its ISIS shared storage to Avid NEXIS, and replacing an older console in the University's main venue with an Avid VENUE | S6L. Full Sail University also used Avid NEXIS shared storage to support the University's Media Composer labs as part of a video production and editing workflow process. Additionally, Avid provided the coursework and instruction necessary for students to receive Avid Certification. As part of the Avid Media Campus program, Full Sail University provided students with a three-year subscription to the Avid software in their Launch Box, ensuring each student had the latest version of software throughout their time at Full Sail.

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
