The most salient recent developments have been in focusing our work to align with the Chancellor’s strategy – in the case of cloud computing, especially towards support for scaling up Jupyterhub to meet the needs of the Division of Data Sciences.

I wanted to share a brief overview of UC Berkeley’s Cloud Strategy so that anyone can get a sense of it in a few minutes. The most important takeaway is that it directs our focus always to be ‘University First’. As a campus, we must invest in technology that meets the needs of the campus mission for our faculty, students, and administration – rather than focusing on technology first or ‘Cloud First’.
