Infra Provides a Low Bandwidth Request Management Solution for the Macedon Ranges Shire Council

Overview The Macedon Ranges Shire Council located in the state of Victoria, Australia, services a semi-rural population of 35,000. The dispersed nature of the Shire, made a client-server based system a costly and high maintenance alternative. Similarly, with bandwidth in the semi-rural region running as low as 19K at some points, a web-based solution initially appeared impractical. To manage this, the Council chose the Infra 100% Web Service Management application. Infra runs across the Internet from a single server in the Councils' central administration office, providing both office and off-site access via a Web browser.
