  12. Cloud Storage What are you doing with my files?

  13. PST Files? X • PST files will not be migrated • Migrate folders/files from your PST into Online Archive • You CAN search through multiple folders in Online Archive in Outlook 2010

  14. What is the Online Archive? If your Personal Folders (PST) are greater than 20 GB, you should review your folders and delete files you no longer need before moving them into the Online Archive.

  18. But I’m using a Mac • Keep using it! • Can launch non-native applications like Outlook, Project and Visio through Cloud Applications

  19. Are you taking away my laptop/desktop? • Not unless your hardware is experiencing problems or is out of warranty • Some computers will be replaced with “thin client” devices We will be upgrading Windows XP Machines to Windows 7

  20. What’s a thin client? • A thin clientis a computer  that depends heavily on some other computer (its server) to fulfill its computational roles.  It has no hard drive. • Cost-wise, the price per seat of a thin client deployment has dropped to the point  where it is more cost-effective than regular PCs.

  21. Devices & Software Your job function and the way you work will determine the exact configuration of your computing environment, as well as which type of UC owned device you receive.

  22. But we use Macs! The same exception process will remain in place for departments and users who use Macs.

  23. Do I have to use Cloud Computing? It depends… • Use what makes sense for your situation • If local device has a natively available application, use it… (MS Office, Fuze, Outlook,Email, Browser-based) • If you’re using a thin client… Yes.

  24. First Steps • Departmental Meetings with SPOCs • IT Assessment & Scheduling • Deployments • Deployments by department begin • Storage Migration • Application Review • Cloud Computing Deployment • Transition from XP to Win7

  25. So what’s going to happen? • Begin migrating PST files to Online Archive • ITS will install software to COPY my files (but not your PSTs) to Cloud Storage • Sign up for a “Cloud Migration” appointment • Next is Cloud Migration Week • Verify your data has been migrated. Migrate any remaining PST files to Online Archive • Next: New Hardware and O/S upgrades to Windows7: You will either receive a new machine, wiped clean, or your machine will be upgraded and scrubbed

  26. Productivity Suite • Email • Instant Messaging • Web Conferencing • Even more storage • Cloud-based provider will add additional tools (i.e. Google, Microsoft 365, Box) • Timeline: TBD
