Building a strategy for single, hybrid, and multicloud in education

Kevin Arand, Amazon Web Services

Educational institutions are seeking to support functions such as remote learning, research, student experience, data insights, and administration with the agility, cost savings, security, and resiliency that cloud computing offers. Many organizations are assessing hybrid and multicloud deployments as part of this digital transformation.

This paper provides prescriptive guidance on creating a single, hybrid, and multicloud technology and governance strategy, for executive leaders and decision-makers at educational institutions who are evaluating their cloud options. This guidance is based on our experience at AWS working with over 14,000 educational institutions of all sizes across the world—from primary and secondary schools through higher education.
