The Bihar Secondary Education Board (BSEB) has gone high-tech for the upcoming board exams with the launch of a mobile application as well as a new data centre at the cost of Rs 7.97 crore. The new centre, inaugurated on Monday by Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, is the first-of-its-kind, claims the board.
The data centre, according to the board, has the capability to store 200 TB worth of records online in a secure manner. The current computer applications, document management system, BSEB enterprise resource planning system, online facilitation system for students, matric and inter pre-exam and post exam software will all be linked to the data centre.
