UW meets the CloudService Planning & Migration Terry Gray, PhD Associate Vice President, Technology Strategy & Chief Technology Architect University of Washington August 2009
Meeting objectives • UW populations • Platform migration • Svcs/Contract model • Service requirements (free & premium) • Drivers & Constraints
Possible Meeting Objectives Help MS plan evolution of Live@edu & BPOS Help MS understand UW drivers & constraints Help UW make planning decisionse.g. fall roll-out, domains, & contract choices Reach common view of desired Services/Contract paradigm Discuss requirements for both free & premium services
About UW $3.5 Billion/yr enterprise Driven by research $$ “The purpose of industry is to convert ideas into $$; the purpose of universities is to convert $$ into ideas” --former UW VP for Research Research Universities: Best thought of as a federation of a thousand independent businesses.
UW Populationsnot counting partners, applicants, patients, etc
Platform Migration PAST FUTURE Personal Cloud Services Personal Cloud Services 40K 40K Dedicated Exchange Dedicated Exchange 5K 10K Premium Cloud (BPOS) Deskmail (Uniform Access) 50K 10K Free Cloud (O.L. Or GAEE) MyUW.net (Alumni Email) 40K +++ 5K New Alums
Service/Contract Paradigm We want “branded” for students and alums, but make no claim to their data... Except for ~10K student employees! We don't think separate ID s for students vs. student employees is workable. We need institutional access to fac/staff data even on “free” cloud services. Issues: How many services, contracts, credentials Relationship of insititutional & consumer svcs
Drivers & ConstraintsStrategy: Enable choice of MS or Google Drivers: Students: STFC decision on UA funding Fac/Staff: Oracle Calendar phase-out Constraints MS calendar sync timing (summer 2010) MS BPOS evolution timing (summer 2010) MS Online Apps timing (summer 2010) MS Contract (Fall 2009) Google/MS calendar interop not yet solved
