Why should our institution consider cloud transformation?
Shifting to the cloud can enhance student choice and engagement by offering various instructional delivery methods, such as online and hybrid learning. This flexibility helps accommodate diverse learner needs, including those with family obligations or distance challenges. Additionally, cloud solutions can streamline processes, improve student experiences, and drive revenue without requiring significant upfront hardware investments.
How does cloud technology enhance research data security?
Cloud technology provides scalable security solutions that are essential for protecting research data, especially as the academic sector faces a high volume of cyber threats—averaging 2,148 attacks per organization weekly in late 2022. By centralizing data storage in the cloud, institutions can implement uniform security measures, reducing vulnerabilities associated with decentralized systems and safeguarding valuable intellectual property.
How can cloud adoption support sustainability efforts?
Transitioning to the cloud can significantly lower energy consumption and reduce the strain on campus infrastructure, such as HVAC systems. Cloud data centers are designed to be more energy-efficient than on-premises servers. By leveraging cloud capabilities, institutions can also analyze data to optimize resource use, including class scheduling and building operations, ultimately supporting sustainability initiatives.
