A ‘vast majority’ of Curtin University’s IT infrastructure will move to a new AWS-hosted platform by the end of next year.
By the end of next year Curtin University will have moved a «vast majority» of its IT systems and data into a digital platform hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) as part of a multi-year agreement between the two organisations. The agreement will see AWS assist Curtin University replace its current IT architecture made up of multiple data centres with an AWS cloud-hosted platform. The university described that the existing architecture resulted in «fragmented IT systems, application islands, and data siloes that made it difficult for the university to innovate and build new experiences or services for students, researchers, and staff».
