  6. Today’s Environment

  7. To the Cloud! • Many have expressed interest in a cloud-based approach to email and calendars. Google Apps for Eduand Microsoft Office 365 are the two of greatest interest • Most campus partners say that running email services is not core to their mission and that it is better sourced as a service • Good University-negotiated contracts are key, and should include protections (e.g. BAA,  US Data Centers, data recovery, etc.) as well as strong SLA and good negotiated pricing

  8. Project ButtonUP • University-wide project to find opt-in solutions to email and collaboration needs. • Participation from every school and center – are you involved? • Find the common denominators for email needs (Lower cost? Higher quota? Works on my handheld?) • Success = fewer email services running on campus, more time for school and business-centric computing.
