New York University (NYU) has been an innovator in higher education since its founding in 1831. But with a legacy onpremises data center using expensive—and scarce—New York City real estate, NYU decided it was time to migrate their data to the cloud. Motivated by the need for more classroom space and reduced total cost of ownership (TCO), they committed to vacating their existing data center, housing more than 2,200 servers, within 18 months—an aggressive timeline for any organization. Based on their exemplary track record with previous engagements, Enquizit was recommended by Amazon Web Services (AWS) to partner with NYU to move the infrastructure to the AWS Cloud. This is the story of how Enquizit helped.
