About SCITDA
The main focus and mission of SCITDA is on collaboration of technology to benefit our agencies, and thus the citizens of South Carolina.
The South Carolina Association of Data Processing Directors (SCADPD) emerged in 1978 as the result of discussions by technical people from a few state agencies. It has since grown from a handful of people to being an organization that includes most state agencies, state colleges and universities. During the Fall Conference 2000, the membership voted to change their name to better reflect current responsibilities

Aruba CX Switches Core Workshop & Lunch (virtual)
Join Carolina Advanced Digital and Aruba!
Aruba AOS-CX is a platform that can scale from complex multi-tier topologies all the way down to the edge with the same operating system. This is possible with the Aruba 6300s and 8325s switches.
Switches still create the foundation of modern networks, yet their role has moved beyond purely providing high-performance wired connectivity. Switches must now offer high-performance Wi-Fi aggregation and also act as an IoT gatekeeper for everything from surveillance cameras to medical devices – all while delivering uninterrupted 24×7 network availability.
Aruba’s next-gen CX switching portfolio is purpose-built for today’s digital world, satisfying the most demanding use cases from the access layer, to the core, and to the data center. Built on cloud-native principles, our portfolio gives IT the flexibility to deploy a single platform from edge access to the data center that includes intuitive management tools and distributed analytics that transform the IT network operator experience.
Join Carolina Advanced Digital and Aruba for a hands-on virtual CX Core Fundamentals Workshop, and realize the benefits of the CX switch series.
Topics
During the workshop you’ll experience first-hand the following CX features :
- CX Collapsed Core Topology
- VSF Stacking
- VSX Fabric
- VRF
- Interface Groups
