Session Type: E09 Hybrid
For many, outsourcing began with an ASP for an ancillary administrative system. Later, student e-mail became the "new" model of cloudsourcing. Today we're wrestling with the realities of SaaS, web as a platform, and clouds for computation, storage, applications, databases, and services. Clouds are engulfing our campuses in strategic and serendipitous ways. We'll explore why some are adopting the cloud paradigm and share pitfalls, challenges, and issues.
