Gainesville ISD approves Resilient contract to replace aging servers

Jan 20, 2026

Trustees unanimously approved a proposal from Resilient to upgrade and replace district servers after IT staff reported current infrastructure is more than 12 years old and beyond recommended lifecycle.

The full story

Jordan Howard, Director of Technology, told trustees that GISD’s server infrastructure has been in service for more than 12 years—exceeding the recommended 5–7 year lifecycle—and is running on outdated hardware and operating systems that present risks. The district selected Resilient for the server-replacement project based on a long-standing relationship and their proposed solution. The board voted unanimously to approve the Resilient quote (motion by Corey Hardin, seconded by Laura Otts).
