    2. Organization & Collaboration DRAFT This shows that we need to do this work in partnership with LEAs and other stakeholders. We have done this before with SCI and in fact we have a number of existing working groups.This shows that we need to do this work in partnership with LEAs and other stakeholders.

    4. Partner Roles DRAFT This shows the high level of what we know we need to do and who can do it it terms of partners.This shows the high level of what we know we need to do and who can do it it terms of partners.

    5. Budget Big Picture DRAFT This adds the FI contract to the other contracts so the next slide makes more sense.This adds the FI contract to the other contracts so the next slide makes more sense.

    7. Statewide SW/content Budget DRAFT Lots of work to do to specify the requirements of these tools and services that will require LEA input and vetting. These are the latest in 21st Century learning/strategies and not fully implemented in the majority of districts.Lots of work to do to specify the requirements of these tools and services that will require LEA input and vetting.

    8. NC Education Cloud DRAFT

    9. NC Education Cloud Model DRAFT This is a conceptual diagram of a cloud infrastructure. IT says that we want compute and storage infrastructure in real Tier 4 style data centers where the infrastructure will be safe and secure; we then use the cloud as a content distribution network (CDN) that optimizes content delivery; and we take advantage of adaptive capacity meaning usage-based cloud models so we pay for what we use and can adapt to peak demands; and all of this realizes that applications are generally all web-delivered.This is a conceptual diagram of a cloud infrastructure.

    10. Cloud-enabled LEA DRAFT The basic idea here is to move as much infrastructure as possible out of LEA closets. Note that administration and control of that infrastructure continues to be rooted in LEA to the degree that such administration and control is desirable. Meaning, we can expose as many or as few knobs to LEA technical staff as is practical to facilitate smooth and reliable IT operations.The basic idea here is to move as much infrastructure as possible out of LEA closets.

    11. Infrastructure Blueprint Servers housed in Tier-4 data centers 24x7x365 monitoring and support Service Level Agreements with teeth Usage-based provisioning and billing Tiered data backup and recovery Near-real-time provisioning DRAFT

    12. A Service Delivery Platform The NC Education Cloud is a service delivery platform for modern instructional and administration support systems Initial statewide services Hosted i-series MS Live@edu and Google Enterprise Learning Management System (LMS) Web collaboration Identity management DRAFT So this is how we transition from talking about the infrastructure part of the cloud story to the application and content part of the story. Essentially overlay some statewide services on the infrastructure and LMS with companion LOR and web collaboration tools make for a good start. We also recognize that Identity management is a core supporting service required to enable single-sign-on and mediated access.So this is how we transition from talking about the infrastructure part of the cloud story to the application and content part of the story. Essentially overlay some statewide services on the infrastructure and LMS with companion LOR and web collaboration tools make for a good start. We also recognize that Identity management is a core supporting service required to enable single-sign-on and mediated access.

    13. Services Guiding Principles No state-managed source code Single Sign-on enabled (via SAML for instance) Open interfaces and APIs Software-as-a-service is the default choice Strict service level agreements DRAFT

    14. The State will Conduct site surveys of LEA infrastructure, applications, and support Collaborate with LEAs to develop and implement a deployment and operating plan for the NC Education Cloud Deploy an NC Education Cloud infrastructure and service delivery platform DRAFT

    15. LEAs Will Incorporate the state infrastructure NC Education Cloud elements into technology plans Adopt the infrastructure blueprint Provide and support student, teacher, administrator access to LMS, web collaboration, and related tools and services DRAFT This means LEAs must adopt the highly reliable and available model that we will define in the plan. Some LEAs may say that they can support the Blueprint internally either because they have a data center or for some other reason. Most LEAs will simply use the tools that will be deployed.This means LEAs must adopt the highly reliable and available model that we will define in the plan.

    16. LEAs May Propose pilots based on existing or developing school, LEA, or regional models Request support related to pre-existing cloud-based service deployments Provide regional administrative and operating support for particular cloud-delivered services DRAFT The real message here is that we will be moving toward state and regional support models. LEAs who have it figured out can consider how they can support other LEAs in the region or the stateThe real message here is that we will be moving toward state and regional support models.
