The OpenWebUI interface makes them intuitive for teachers and students to use. The hardware is deliberately designed to be scalable, ensuring that growing usage will not cause bottlenecks. The server and its features were presented to the faculty at Steinm\u00fchle during the school\u2019s internal teacher training program (SchiLF).   <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The server operates in a completely climate-neutral manner<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Steinm\u00fchle is particularly proud of its sustainable operations: The server runs entirely climate-neutrally\u2014powered by hydropower and the school\u2019s own photovoltaic system. \u2014 So, for us, AI and sustainability are by no means mutually exclusive. <\/p>\n<p>But what exactly can the server do? We\u2019re currently testing several exciting applications: a parent assistant with information about Steinm\u00fchle, a resource assistant for the religion department, exam assistants for teachers, and other experimental projects. Everything runs on our own infrastructure\u2014no data leaves the school, and full GDPR compliance is guaranteed.  <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Interplay Between Education and Technology<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Recent developments also show that we\u2019re on the right track with this approach: We\u2019ve just submitted our entry to a prestigious 2026 competition\u2014with our data-sovereign server at the heart of the concept. We\u2019re very excited to see what happens! <\/p>\n<p>Steinm\u00fchle would like to thank the school administration and management for their vision of a school that responsibly combines education and technology. We are proud of our experts, who developed our project and are keeping an eye on its future development. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Contact:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Bj\u00f6rn Wagner, teacher at Steinm\u00fchle, AI and Data Protection Officer<\/p>\n<p>Till Buurman, IT Specialist for System Integration, member of the Steinm\u00fchle IT team, and server administrator<\/p>\n<p><em><span class=\"T286Pc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-processed=\"true\">This post was created using AI<\/span> and edited by Angela Heinemann<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"io-ox-signature\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-38205 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/02\/5E6F5C3D-61A0-4A80-8BF4-A4024FF914C3_1_105_c-e1771539694603.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thanks to the support of our booster club, chaired by Jasmine Weidenbach, and a wealth of in-house expertise, Steinm\u00fchle has had something for several months now that most schools in Germany do not yet have: its own AI server\u2014and with it, true digital sovereignty.
