It makes sense that government and education communities have some of the most complex IT infrastructure needs – Delivering services to populations across campuses and jurisdictions requires sizeable systems that are highly adaptable, secure and virtually disruption-proof.

The complexity of public sector systems can make a successful migration to the cloud seem daunting, but it doesn't have to be.

Butler Community College in Kansas changed how it manages services for its thousands of students by moving its ERP and several other student information systems from an on-campus data center to the cloud – all in just three months. 

Hear leadership from Butler Community College and their technology partners at Oracle and Tharseo discuss the schools' digital journey during a webinar on November 14, 2023, at 10 AM PT/1 PM ET.

You'll learn:

  • Best practices for moving complex systems from on-prem to cloud
  • Butler's cloud migration process and exact steps governments can replicate 
  • How to migrate to the cloud with minimal downtime
