While the cloud has become a strategic and operational imperative for higher education, fitting it into an effective IT strategy can be difficult for colleges and universities. The colocation data center presents several opportunities to meet the challenges that higher education faces with balancing cost, access, and flexibility.
For all but a few select colleges and universities, IT budgets are strained as they are caught between maintaining and updating on-prem data centers while devising a strategy and means to move workloads to the cloud. Meeting growth and data accessibility needs across a campus network and beyond the edge means a constant struggle between rightsizing infrastructure and avoiding over or under-provisioning.
Universities increasingly realize that investment in smaller and more powerful hardware racks that are placed in secure facilities that handle power and cooling is the better long-term investment. Colocation service providers can deliver environments that can adapt to needs in a flexible footprint to accommodate scaling up when needed along with cost-effective equipment life cycles.
