Journal Title: ALTA. Pažangios mokymosi technologijos ir aplikacijos - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
Supply of the cloud computing services in education institutions has increased dramatically over the years. The cloud computing solutions allow not only create more effective teaching methods and new communication chances for the whole education society, but also to reduce costs of installing and maintaining programs. One of the cloud computing services is so called Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) can help to reduce the costs. Even though most of the latest scientific researches were about VDI technical solutions or how to save energy consumptions, the aspect of costs assessment of such tools is ignored. Authors in this paper are recommending VDI for rendering education technology and prepare a case analysis of the choice between investing into the private ICT infrastructure and using VDI outsourcing service. This paper focuses attention on ICT infrastructures of two higher education institutions, namely Kaunas University of Technology and Marijampole College. It includes an overview of cloud computing services used by both organizations and a cost/benefit analysis of outsourcing of VDI at the Marijampole College.
