$W264 | Thinking Out Cloud: Amazon Web Services Goes to School (Room SOUTH 331C)

Increasingly, school IT is adopting cloud services to become more agile, efficient, and secure, allowing their teams better focus on their core mission. This practical workshop will give IT administrators a first-hand opportunity to address key issues involved in moving to the cloud. Led by 17-year veteran Michael Coats, who built and runs what is arguably one of the largest K-12 AWS footprints in the world, and Dr. Chad Stevens with AWS, this hands-on deep dive will address critical issues — security, resourcing, stakeholder management, etc. — you need to know. Get hands-on with the AWS cloud and take away a better understanding of best practices and key considerations for moving to a cloud-shared services model!
