The [[olpc:School server|'''X'''O school '''S'''erver, or '''XS''']], is one of the products of the OLPC project, designed to complement the [[OLPC:XO]] laptop. It is a [[olpc:Linux|Linux]]-based OS (a ''[[olpc:Fedora|Fedora]]-based distribution'') engineered to be installed on generic, low-end servers. OLPC outlines [[olpc:XS_Recommended_Hardware|hardware recommendations]] and in the future, they may offer a hardware platform specially designed for the role.

Educational deployments of Sugar must also provide infrastructure to extend services for learners, teachers, and their support communities. While the Sugar software may be self-sufficient for many learning activities, other activities and services depend on the School Server to provide connectivity, shared resources, and other services. Services, tools and activities running on the School Server allow asynchronous interaction, can take advantage of larger storage capacities, and possibly greater bandwidth and more powerful processors in the XS.
