How might cloud computing, however it is defined, change the services and economics of IT at our institutions? The transition of IT services and responsibilities for infrastructure, functions, and support from institutions to either larger-scale enterprises or consumer providers is important and under way. Agility, personalization, and convenience are strong motivations. What kinds of enterprise activities lend themselves well to extramural sourcing? What risks are involved, and how do we act to mitigate them? Join us as this panel explores the impact of cloud computing.
This session is part of the EDUCAUSE 2009 Online conference, being sponsored locally by LIS.
