Dear voornaam, Like many college campuses, the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign once had an issue with its different departments and end users consuming cloud services independently, choosing their own vendors, paying with credit cards and submitting the bills for reimbursement. The practice did not allow the university to ensure the cloud services complied with campus policies or came with the necessary guardrails for cybersecurity. The university could also not aggregate its cloud spend to reduce costs.
Today, the college is taking an enterprise approach with Technology Services at Illinois helping departments throughout the university leverage the cloud to deploy IT assets quickly, scale their use as needed, optimize costs and deploy advanced technologies quickly.
Join the Center for Digital Education on September 3 at 11 a.m. Pacific/2 p.m. Eastern as we talk to campus leaders about: - The challenges they faced
- How Tech Services collaborates with its cloud vendor to broker cloud resources across the campus
- How you can optimize costs and gain greater agility with the cloud on YOUR campus
